“Other countries will say, ‘well, the dollar is no longer a reliable global reserve currency’ if the US can just seize somebody's money, whenever [they] have geopolitical problems with them. That breaks the terms of the global financial and economic system that was set up by the US and the West starting all the way back with Bretton Woods in the 1960s,” Sleboda said, noting that by simply freezing the assets, the US already encouraged this process to begin, pointing to Saudi Arabia which has been looking for alternatives to the petrodollar.
“They're talking about $61 billion from the US for one year. So, even if not all of it is stolen - because that's what it would be, theft. Then that could fund the Kiev regime's economy, which is entirely dependent on the West to a tune of some 50 to $60 billion a year, plus their military expenses on top of that. So it is a considerable sum of money.”
