Foreign gold, assets and money are fleeing America and Europe/Switzerland

Most often than not, propaganda is just propaganda and does not reflect reality, and people must not be taken in blindly. As an example, how many countries under sanctions by the USA have collapsed? Has Cuba collapsed? Did North Korea collapse? These are poor countries with no natural resources, yet they managed to survive. So, Russia, a country with immense resources, is going to survive to the chagrin of the USA and the Europeans, no matter what the USA and the Europeans are prepared to throw at them.

As a matter of fact, the Europeans are scrapping the bottom of the barrel for more aid for Ukraine, having to eye greedily at the US$300 billion seized from Russia to fund their commitment. It is not going to work. Russia holds, as collateral, almost US$1 trillion according to estimates, of Western assets still stuck in Russia. When a push comes to a shove, Russia can nationalize those assets and Western owners of those assets in Russia will lose everything.

If the USA and the Europeans do illegally seize those Russian assets instead of keeping them hostage, that will be detrimental to their desire to attract any further foreign investments. It will be cutting the nose to spite the face.
