Yellen Aims to Send Frozen Russian Assets to Ukraine

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

Russian assets frozen by the West have been sitting idle for three years. US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is urging the G20 to liquidate nearly $300 billion in stolen assets and send it to Ukraine.

“It is necessary and urgent for our coalition to find a way to unlock the value of these immobilized assets to support Ukraine’s continued resistance and long-term reconstruction,” Yellen claimed. “I believe there is a strong international law, economic, and moral case for moving forward. This would be a decisive response to Russia’s unprecedented threat to global stability.”

This amount is more than Ukraine’s entire GDP. They could never recover on their own, hence JPMorgan Chase and BlackRock stepping in for when it comes crashing down. This, yet again, brings NATO members one step closer to fully entering the war. Two-thirds of the frozen/stolen assets are located in the European Union, which recently enacted legislation that corners windfall profits from the frozen assets, marking one major step toward directly funding Ukraine with these funds.

For all intents and purposes, the people who lost their life savings are mostly private citizens who have been victims of circumstance. They did not fund Russia’s invasion or have a say in their government’s decisions. Russia may view this complete violation of international law as an act of war. Using assets seized by private citizens to fund a war opens the door to a new form of economic warfare that will only cause people to refrain from investing in countries that allow this to go on. Welcome to the total collapse of globalization.

The Kremlin announced in December that it would not hesitate to seize assets from Western nations if they were to use their own central bank’s assets against them in war. China and other countries with large Western holdings could use any new international legislation against their opponents in the future. Despite Yellen’s claims that this move would not hurt the dollar, it would certainly deter foreign investment. Why invest in a nation that could potentially seize everything depending on your government’s policies? China sees the new funding packages the US is sending to Taiwan and will respond accordingly.

Yellen falsely claims that sending off these assets to Ukraine would “incentivize [Russia] to come to the table to negotiate a just peace with Ukraine.” Putin could not be more vocal about wanting to come to an agreement. He has attempted to reach a peace agreement countless times but has been blocked by the neocons at every opportunity. There can be no peace with this amount of money on the line.

Others are so confident that Russia will lose that they believe these assets should remain frozen as a bargaining chip or for future reparation payments. No one knows where the money sent to Ukraine goes or how it is spent. This reeks of a massive international corruption scheme that will propel us one big step closer to World War III.

Steal their money and give it to Z and MI complex.

Seems like a good way to not piss Putin off even more.

The only time half agreed with the half white Obama was when he said “….we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation or a Jewish nation,…”.
This country is the Whore of Babylon run by a bunch of godless jews.

Western production of arms and ammunition is maxed out and insufficient. The Ukraine is running out of soldiers. The only military utility of cash would be to try to drop pallets of it onto individual Russian soldiers. Doesn’t seem optimal.

Countries around the world are getting the message loud and clear about parking reserves with America and its lackeys.

America and Britain aren’t mentioned in the Holy Bible, even PASSINGLY or historically, something BAD happens here that even historians won’t talk about….hmmm.

I wonder if that involves children and nuclear devices?

Because the Bible is written by people who lived in the ME and that was their whole world at that time.

The bible, is a command and conquest communication and domination system.
Created in the 4th century, and a source of contention ever since.

It is the second refinement in a series of three different control systems created by the same people.

All of it fact, blended with fiction.

There are valuable life lessons within the bible, of this? There is no doubt.

But it was written by gods.
Men. Humans.

Inside is the cryptic warning:
“Do not place your trust in the nobles or the sons of man, to whom no salvation belongs.”

Which is a huuuuge conudrum.
For who wrote the bible again?
Men wrote the words.
Men.
Who were “nobles and sons of man”

It also says in scripture:
“You are gods”

So the bible is “Gods” word in the sense that a few “gods” wrote books, where they elevated their views as “God’s” above all other’s views.
That is what the creators of the Jews did.
The creators of the christians
And the creators of the muzzies.

Yes, it’s “urgent.”
Always a crisis, always an emergency to justify their actions.
This time a heist of hundreds of billions needs to be done, consequences be damned, as usual.
Question: why don’t baby boomers ever go the fuck away? Is there a secret pact amongst that generation to fuck up everything they possibly can before they croak? Sure seems like it.

Think of it this way. The usa is like a big eighteen wheel truck with a trailer load of dynamite going down a big mountain. The truck driver is a sixty year old man while the relief driver sitting next to him is a twenty-five year old covered in tattoos with a nose ring and purple hair that does not even know what sex they are with a cell phone in one hand and a red bull in the other, and can not drive a stick shift to boot. The truck driver just wants to get home alive, pet his dog and watch a Sean Connery James Bond movie on tv.

Perhaps it’s because scientists monitoring multi-generational declines in intelligence have shown us that the boomers are the best we’ve got?

I’m fairly certain we’re past trading insults with Russia at this point. And it really wasn’t that effective of an insult. See, Russia knows how this all ends. The West has lost its collective mind and lady liberty’s panties are around her ankles. How you gonna win a war when all your generals are faggots?

Like it or not, Russia has the MORAL HIGH GROUND, and they had it from the very beginning of this entire fiasco.

If that offends you? It fucking SHOULD!

The problem is those ‘ignorant slavs’ were supposed to remember how ‘inferior’ they are and hand everything over a long time ago. There’s nothing worse than a rich spoiled brat when ‘the help’ misbehaves.

Yes, Putin is an egomaniacal KGB dictator that you don’t FK with, or you die. But even with all that, he gets my vote because he believes in biology.
