Would you be okay if Israel’s assets were seized and the money given to Palestinian resistance groups? Because I’m guessing you would. That would be the ethical thing to do.
Russia, obviously, is special to you. You’re against the ethical thing in that case, despite Putin also committing genocide.
I am against the United States being able to seize the assets of other countries, whether it be Russia or Israel or Egypt or anywhere else. The US does not have the right to be able to just seize somebody’s assets. That’s called theft. And theft is wrong.
You did not. You talked about the U.S., not G7 as a whole. No one asked you about the U.S. The vast majority of seized assets have not been seized by the U.S.
Ah, okay, I see. Well, regardless whether it’s the US or Europe or whatever, I don’t feel as though any country should have the right to seize another country’s assets.
Then what should be done with things like Russian oligarchs’ yachts in foreign ports? They’re taking up space that could be better utilized and the oligarchs aren’t allowed to get them due to sanctions. Is it right to expect, for example, France to maintain some Russian billionaire’s yacht docked in the harbor in Nice to maintain it indefinitely? That, of course, means that they have to make sure that it will not become a risk to the port in any way. That also means that French taxpayers are going to have to pay to maintain that yacht.
The oligarchs themselves can’t go get it. That’s for sure. But they can still pay somebody to go get it with assets they control such as gold or Bitcoin or Monero.
Other countries should make it impossible for the US to seize anything without force being required. L

That has nothing to do with my comment.

That still has nothing to do with my comment. It’s very dishonest of you keep evading what I’m talking about.
I answered your question. What more could you possibly want?
You did not. You talked about the U.S., not G7 as a whole. No one asked you about the U.S. The vast majority of seized assets have not been seized by the U.S.

I don’t see the logic there.
