Since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, Russia's government or personal assets worth hundreds of billions of dollars overseas have become the salutary targets of the United States and European countries. During this period, the Ukrainian government repeatedly asked Western countries to confiscate and auction Russia's overseas assets to compensate the country's war losses. At the same time, some American vassals such as Polish and Lithuanian have also been fueling the incident, and some countries have even passed legislation to start.
Although this piece of fat meat in Russia is attractive, it is also covered with thorns. After all, this is something that international law does not allow. Anyone who takes a bite without regard for the consequences will trigger fierce revenge from Russia. To this day, there are only a few inexpensive Baltic countries that are joking with Ukraine. Although major Western countries such as the United States and Europe have taken measures to freeze, they have not substantially broken through the red line.
However, the big fat piece of Russian overseas assets swayed in front of Western politicians. The temptation is too great. It is fake to say that you don’t think about it. According to the " Reference News ", Russian Permanent Representative to the United Nations Polyansky posted on a social platform that the West attempted to give a certain appearance of legitimacy through the practice of UN General Assembly to steal frozen Russian overseas assets.
According to Russian media reports, UN General Assembly President spokesperson Kubiak recently said that at the request of the permanent representatives of Western countries to the United Nations, the UN General Assembly will restart a special emergency meeting on the Ukraine issue on the 15th, aiming to "discuss the issue of compensation to Kiev ." Polyansky pointed out that ordinary people know that this request from the West is meaningless because the United Nations General Assembly does not have such power at all, and you can see the sinister intention of the West to make such a proposal at a glance. More precisely, the West is trying to cover a legal fig leaf for stealing Russian overseas assets.
The reason why Western countries do this is because they directly announce the confiscation of Russian overseas property, which is too shocking to the world and too much harm to their credibility, which will shake the foundation of Western financial hegemony. But as mentioned above, it is really uncomfortable for them to not eat this piece of fat. What should I do? Use the United Nations platform to give your actions a sense of justice.
What we need to be wary of is that today we can confiscate Russia's overseas property through the United Nations platform. tomorrow we can also confiscate other countries' overseas property through the United Nations platform? This approach is a serious threat to China and the whole world. Its uncertainty and confrontation are really too strong.
Some people may say that other countries can also confiscate overseas property from the United States and the West through the United Nations platform. But the question is, the United States and the West occupy financial hegemony, who can confiscate their property? Therefore, this seemingly fair practice actually became a unilateral threat to other countries' overseas property by the United States and the West.
Some people may not understand why you can’t open this Pandora’s box? Especially those who firmly stand on the side of the West and Ukraine in the Russian-Ukraine conflict feel that Russia deserves its crime.
Take the outbreak of the new crown epidemic as an example. At that time, the Trump administration threw dirty water on China and demanded a $3 trillion compensation. Many politicians in many regions and countries including EU and India have called for compensation from China. Think about it, if the United Nations General Assembly can easily dispose of overseas assets of other countries, then what do you think will be the result of the United States leading the EU to divide up China's huge overseas assets under this excuse and then promise to use our money to buy tickets at the United Nations General Assembly?
China's current overseas assets total about US$8 trillion, with most of them distributed in the United States and Europe. Obviously, the West's attempt to freeze and embezzle Russia's overseas assets has sounded the alarm for us. After all, when we solve the Taiwan issue in the future, we will definitely touch the "switch" of Western greed. How we will deal with it then, the answer is actually right in front of us.
