    Owners outfoxed as Russia absconds with $10 billion worth of jets

    1. It is not an international court. Courts in the countries that confiscated the yachts (Italy and others) are in charge. The authority obviously comes from those countries' governments. 2. I have yet to hear of someone confiscating a 512-ft yacht of some poor Russian worker who worked all his...

    Owners outfoxed as Russia absconds with $10 billion worth of jets

    The funds that are frozen are Russian bank's funds. Not "oligarchs"' funds. If you're talking about the yachts - I don't know ask the courts in the countries where they were confiscated. Oh and I would not call opposition to an unprovoked military invasion of a neighboring country an...

    Some intercepted calls between Russian soldiers and their relatives

    Owners outfoxed as Russia absconds with $10 billion worth of jets

    I am sure the lawyers will figure it out. Whatever banks froze it, in whatever country, I presume. What is interesting though is, how do Russians think anyone will ever trust them again for anything in business after they pull stunts like these?

    Some intercepted calls between Russian soldiers and their relatives

    You need to hear Russian soldiers speaking in English? No these are not deep fakes. I have listened to dozens of such calls that Ukrainians intercepted. I speak Russian. I also know army slang and Russian slang in general. These are not fakes.

    And some of that will pay for the airplanes they stole. A lot of that will also go for the damage done to Ukraine at some point, I am sure.

    Owners outfoxed as Russia absconds with $10 billion worth of jets

    US banks and EU banks have frozen somewhere around $400B in Russian assets. Hard currency assets. That's the rainy day fund that Putin counted on to counteract the sanctions and save the ruble. You're not up to speed are you?

    The companies involved should sue. When they win in courts, ask the banks that are holding frozen Russian assets to use some of those assets to compensate them.
