Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen made a ‘surprise’ visit to Kiev on Monday to reinforce the US’s support for Ukraine.
(snip)
Shmyhal, speaking through an interpreter, said the two discussed further U.S. sanctions on Russia aimed at weakening its economy and military and “confiscating frozen Russian assets and putting them to the benefit of the recovery of Ukraine.”
But Yellen told reporters in a phone briefing that there were still significant legal obstacles to fully seizing the $300 billion in Russian central bank assets frozen by sanctions.

Freeze? Especially until the mess is over? Yes.
But to just take it and give it to someone else used to be called 'theft'. There is one caveat to this, but nowhere is it discussed--and there is a good chance its because there isn't the proof to do so.
But I suppose its not theft if the victim can't do anything about it, right?
Dear Republican House, I thought you controlled the purse strings.
Yellin should stick to what she knows best … destroying the American economy. Oops, I wrote that without thinking. That’s the reason she was in Ukraine. It’s all a part of the plan and eff’n RINOs and even some idiots on FR are going along with it.
“Dear Republican House, I thought you controlled the purse strings.“
That’s the problem… they DO.
(They’re not on OUR side either..)
Surprise American People - You owe another 1.25 billion to Ukraine !!!!
The Federal Reserve central banksters control the purse strings (and for us peering on the surface, control congress as well.
These visits by elected Democrats to Ukraine are suspicious as hell.
Lots of laundry
Tax day is coming. Probably won’t get hit too hard this year, but next tax year will be savage on us. They have to make up for all this spending. Unless their goal is to bankrupt the country, then they are well on their way.
For those with small brains, the globalist want Russia destroyed. They have no use for borders, sovereign countries, or superpowers. This includes the United States.
And not a PENNY for East Palestine, Ohio.
Will they pay us back?
And my retirement is being inflated out of existence
I think it’s interesting the US/WH condemns China for supporting Russia, and then we openly support Ukraine. Some will say but, Russia invaded. As a recall, we also invaded Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen, Syria, Somalia and a host of other African Nations. Not sure if we should be pointing fingers and ordering others
Money laundering thrown in our faces.
How long is this byatch going to be in that position? 80 years?
Que sniper.
And also unelected Democrats, I should add!
Every billion that the US contributes to Ukraine is a billion less that the Euroweenies have to give, though the fight is in their backyard and the stakes are highest for them. Present government is committing treason against future American generation.
