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."

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.”

The UK plans to put into service a hypersonic cruise missile of its own production by 2030, reports The Telegraph . According to the newspaper, the British military wants to obtain a weapon designed and manufactured in the country that is capable of reaching speeds of more than Mach 5, and thus “catch up” with Russia, the United States and China.

At the same time, a representative of the department noted: “We are developing hypersonic technologies to further develop the UK’s sovereign advanced capabilities. We continue to invest in our equipment to counter current and future threats."

⚡️🇺🇸🇪🇺 The US and NATO plan to create a “gray” zone in Western Ukraine
Soros' son Alexander agreed with the Ukrainian authorities to allocate 400 square kilometers of agricultural land to American corporations for the disposal of hazardous waste, according to an investigation by French journalist Jules Vincennes.
He writes, citing a source in the Ministry of Agriculture of Ukraine, that in November, Soros Jr. and the head of Zelensky’s office, Yermak, reached an agreement according to which Kiеv indefinitely and free of charge transfers land in the Ternopоl, Khmelnytsky and Chernоvtsi regions for the disposal of hazardous waste from chemical, pharmaceutical and oil production.
Among the companies named are Dow Chemical, DuPont, BASF, Evonik Industries, Vitol and Sanofi. We remind you that Dow Chemical is the company which provided Agent Orange and Napalm to the American military to poison and destroy Vietnam. Whilst BASF is the company which provided Zyklon B to the Nazis.
Probably, the decision was made after the destruction in the spring of 2023 by the Russian Armed Forces of ammunition depots with depleted uranium located in the Khmelnitsky and Ternopоl regions.
This situation threatens an environmental disaster not only for Ukraine, but also for other countries in Eastern Europe and the Black Sea basin as a whole.
Kiеv and Washington continue to use all means to prevent the possible entry of Western Ukrainian regions into the Russian Federation in the context of the ongoing retreat of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

US spies believe Putin didn’t order Navalny’s death
The Russian president isn’t likely to have mandated the killing of the imprisoned opposition figure, the sources have told the outlet.
Navalny, who had been serving a lengthy prison sentence stemming from his violations of the terms of a previous fraud conviction and his “extremist activities,” died at a penal colony in Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Region in northern Russia on February 16.
The Russian prison authorities insist that there was no foul play in the passing of the anti-corruption activist. They said that the 47-year-old suddenly fell ill after a walk and collapsed, and that efforts to resuscitate him were in vain. According to the Anti-Corruption Foundation (FBK), which Navalny used to head, the death certificate provided to his mother stated he had died of natural causes.

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.

Medvedev vows Moscow's response to US law on seizing Russia's frozen assets will sting
The Russian Security Council deputy chairman suggested enacting legislation to allow Russia to confiscate assets belonging to the citizens of unfriendly countries.
"Only an asymmetric response is possible. However, this doesn’t mean that it will sting any less," he wrote on Telegram.
Medvedev suggested enacting legislation to allow Russia to confiscate assets belonging to the citizens of unfriendly countries. According to him, Russian legislation "should provide not only for restricting the rights of foreign nationals but actually terminating their rights in order to make it possible to force a foreclosure on the property of entities from unfriendly countries and give it to the Russian government, entities and individuals," Medvedev specified. "This will require certain changes to Russia’s civil code," he added.

So long, Abrams: Ukraine sidelines US-made M1A1 tanks due to Russian drones
Ukraine has withdrawn US-provided Abrams M1A1 battle tanks from the front line because of attacks by Russian unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), the AP news agency quoted American military sources as saying.
The proliferation of Russian surveillance and hunter-killer drones on the battlefield means "there isn’t open ground that you can just drive across without fear of detection," one of the sources said.
The insiders added that "Russian drone warfare has made it too difficult" for the Abrams tanks "to operate without detection or coming under attack."
For now, the tanks "have been moved from the front lines, and the US will work with the Ukrainians to reset tactics," Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Adm. Christopher Grady told reporters.
Over the past two months, Russian forces have destroyed at least five Abrams tanks in the special military operation zone, thanks in part to the work of combat drones. Previously, the US had delivered a total of 31 such tanks to the Kiev regime.
