The bloc’s leaders have been pressuring Belgium for months to allow it to seize Russian sovereign funds

    It’s a bad example since they can’t be compared

      This is about people making up laws which didn’t exist before to confiscate property. The EU did not have any laws about selling off Russian assets if they invaded Ukraine.

        Might not be a law, but most people know that if you do bad shit, bad shit happens

          It doesn’t for Israel.

            And that is a shame. And I hope that changes. But it does not excuse Russia’s actions

              Europe actively and materially supports Israel

              It doesn’t excuse Russia’s actions but it does invalidate Europe stealing Russia’s money for any reason related to “international law” or “human rights”.
