Zakharova: Russia rejects the concession of new regions in exchange for frozen assets.

Earlier, The Wall Street Journal reported that Germany allowed Russian assets to remain intact to be used as leverage in negotiations on a Ukrainian settlement and thus “encourage Russia to cede part of the Ukrainian territory it occupied.”

“The assets on the territory do not change. We don’t trade our homeland. And Russian assets must remain inviolable, otherwise there will be a harsh response to Western theft. And many in the West have already understood this,” Zakharova wrote in her Telegram channel.

Zelensky’s legitimacy will soon be questioned

The fate of the current regime in Kiev is sealed, spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said.

Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky will not be able to remain in office indefinitely, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said in an interview published on Sunday. He will have to “somehow exonerate himself” in the eyes of his fellow citizens and other nations in order to maintain his grip on power, the Russian official said.

A presidential election was scheduled to take place in Ukraine on March 31. Zelensky canceled it along with all other elections in December 2023, citing martial law and the conflict with Russia. He also announced at the time that no new elections for either president or parliament will be held as long as martial law remains in force. The move essentially extended his mandate indefinitely.

“I believe Zelensky’s fate is sealed, “A moment will come soon when many people, including those inside Ukraine, will question his legitimacy.”

Russia warns West against driving ‘nail in coffin’ of own economy

The seizure of Moscow’s frozen assets by the US and EU would set “a dangerous precedent,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has warned.

The US and its allies have blocked around $300 billion in Russian central bank assets as part of the sanctions imposed on Moscow over the Ukraine conflict. Most of the funds are being held in the EU. Washington has been insisting for months that international law allows for the appropriation of the funds, but Germany and France have expressed concerns that such a move could have negative consequences for the Western financial system.

Earlier this week, US Joe Biden signed a bill permitting the seizure of some $6 billion in Russian state assets that are sitting in American banks. 

Peskov said on Sunday that it is too early to speak about all $300 billion being confiscated by the US and EU. However, he offered the reminder that “Russia has Western money from various structures."
