The United States and Europe are blinded by lard?
In the past two days, the paranoia of the United States and Europe has become more and more serious.
On February 28, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said in a speech to the European Parliament that the EU should consider using the proceeds from frozen Russian assets to buy ** equipment for Ukraine, and she urged the EU to take more action on defense policy.
Earlier this month, von der Leyen said the European Union had initiated legal procedures to ensure that the proceeds of frozen Russian assets did not belong to Russia.
On February 27, U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen publicly called on countries in São Paulo, Brazil, to "unleash" the value of frozen Russian assets and use them to aid Ukraine. 
In her speech, she mentioned that since the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, many Western countries have frozen the assets of the Central Bank of Russia with a total value of about $280 billion, and there are many differences among countries on how to dispose of these assets. It's not that I don't know, I'm shocked, 280 billion US dollars, it's just an astronomical amount! Russia "declared war".In response to the wishful thinking and unquenchable desires of the United States and the European Union, the Russian side has repeatedly stated that according to international law, any seizure of its assets by Western countries is theft and illegal. 
Russian press secretary Dmitry Peskov said earlier this month that the illegal seizure of Russian assets would undermine the foundations of the global economic system, and that if Western countries did so, Russia would resort to law. Since the start of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the United States and European countries have launched more than one freezing of Russian assets and launched a series of economic sanctions against Russia, but economic sanctions are nothing to Russia. In 2022, in response to the ongoing economic sanctions against the United States and Western European countries, Russia announced that it had signed a treaty on ".Measures to ensure socio-economic stability and people's livelihood in the Russian Federation"The ** order. In other words, no matter how the United States and Western European countries impose sanctions, they will not affect the livelihood of the people in Russia, will not affect Russian enterprises, and, of course, will not affect Russia. 
Russia** Putin did not sign because of the sanctions imposed by the United States and European countries".Measures to ensure socio-economic stability and people's livelihood in the Russian FederationInstead, preparations and countermeasures have already been made for economic sanctions. In 2014, Russia launched the Financial Information Transfer System (SPFS) project, the Russian version of SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Communication), which has been operational since January 2015. Therefore, even if the United States and European countries exclude some Russian banks from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) payment system, or just propose the MIR payment system a few days ago, it is not dispensable for Russia at this stage, but Russia can still guarantee that there is a financial system available. 
But to freeze Russian assets, and to use them as US and European revenues to buy ** for Ukraine, and let Ukraine take this batch of ** to fight Russia, can Russia bear this tone? Apparently impossible. Recourse to the law is Russia's stern warning to the United States and the European Union, but it does not make sense to reason with hooligans, and in this process, Russia can only advance the lawsuit by constantly presenting evidence, and in general, it is another long "war of words". China is Putin's greatest hopeHardliners in the United States and the United Kingdom advocate an outright seizure of the assets of the Russian central bank, but EU countries such as Germany and France oppose this, fearing that such a move could undermine the stability of the euro and set a dangerous precedent. 
At the earliest, Germany and France did not freeze Russian assets, and sanctions did not fall, but Germany and France woke up from the "blood loss". After the sanctions imposed on Russian energy by the United States and Western European countries, Western European countries are facing the problem of energy shortage, and the situation is very grim, so that the people of many countries are paraded in the streets**, and the United States at this time, not only did not help the so-called allies, but fell into the ground, with 4 times higher **, the United States LNG was sold to the so-called allies, and the results are also obvious, some Western European countries do not have any political acumen, but it is 4 times higher than Russian energy, and normal people can see the clues.
Moreover, in the process, Russia signed a cheap and huge amount of energy agreements with many friendly countries, and Russia's economic development was quickly reversed. In the end, China and Russia emerged as the biggest winners, signing a $400 billion deal for natural gas**, including the construction of a gas pipeline of about 3,000 kilometers from eastern Siberia to northeastern China. The parties also agreed to build a second large gas pipeline connecting western Siberia with China's Xinjiang region. And now, Russian companies are also planning to develop in China and even the Asia-Pacific region, and the United States and Western European countries are only red-eyed. 
Although Russia now has $280 billion frozen by the United States and Europe, as the saying goes, there is no panic when there is surplus food at home, as long as the economy can still run quickly, Putin is at least full of confidence, and many of the reasons for Putin's confidence are from China, a comprehensive strategic partner.
