Kristina Rus — The arrest of Russian assets exists only in the media


Reasonable analysis from Katrina Rus on the Belgian decision on Yukos and Russian assets. Let's hope she is correct. This is otherwise explosive. 
The Foreign Ministry on Thursday summoned Belgium's ambassador and warned that Moscow would consider taking similar action against Belgian accounts and property in Russia if the accounts of the Russian companies and diplomatic missions in Belgium were not released. — AP
Where the West sees property rights and legitimate profits, Russia sees looting. 

Not only that, Russia is now convinced that the West seeks to regime change in Russia in order to reimpose the oligarchs rule as under Yeltsin — let the looting begin again.
