Record asset seizure: Authorities confiscated $7.6 billion in holdings tied to Vadim Moshkovich, the largest nationalization in recent years.
Part of wider campaign: The Kremlin has transferred an estimated $89.7 billion in private assets to state control since the Ukraine war began.
Elite on alert: Billionaires are showing loyalty to avoid similar fates, with some making large voluntary contributions to the state budget.
Every single country should have seized all the money from Russian oligarchs and spent the money on enabling Ukraine to defend itself. Now, even Russia beat you to it, FFS…
Putin is draining the Russian federation of money and workers, destroying the Russian empire from within, so he can pursue his personal interests of expanding the Russian Empire.
Once some people actually considered this man smart, but in reality he is a one trick pony, and the trick is disinformation, problem is that disinformation is not a strategy, it is at best a tactic, and tactics only have so many uses before they don’t work anymore.
Unless the money is being paid to other nations, they are just doing what we should all do, nationalize billionaires and pay for things. It liquifies the economy.

You fool! Comrade Pony has many tricks!

Agree and upvoted, but I just wanted to pedantically brag about the mnemonic I learned today:
Disinformation = Dishonest, Deceptive
Misinformation = didn’t have a good one for this…
Misinformation = might be mistake
What would antidisinformationtarianism be? Incorrect pedantry?
Ah yes of course, it was a slip-up, because in my language we use the word misinformation in the meaning of disinformation.
I have corrected the post.Misinformation = mistakes?
So disinformation leads to misinformation?
You know Mamdani’s gotta be at least a little jealous
I mean shit, aren’t you?
The move has intensified unease among Russia’s wealthy…
We need to intensify the unease among our own wealthy but for vastly different reasons.
Lol so Russia is running dry if they’re stealing from the rich
Hope Elon is paying attention…
That’s what we should do to all of them.
Looks like this guy was trying to do something in Cyprus but forced home, arrested in 2025, and now having his assets seized.
Must not have been on board with the war in the beginning https://www.reuters.com/markets/europe/russias-rusagro-loses-third-its-value-after-moshkovich-detained-2025-03-27/
wait till the us starts doing this on the lesser rich people. talk about leapords ate my face.
yeah that will probably do a lot to make the russian oligarchs against the war
And do what? They are not some united people. They’re literally just grifters that will take as much scrap as possible and if Piotr is dead and his money is taken - good maybe there’s an opportunity for me to grift more now and I didn’t like Piotr anyway.
They’re United in their efforts to remove windows from upper floors.
heh, so Russia is going communist again…,
Again? You have to be communist once before you can be again. Putin and the oligarchs are a continuation of the Stalinist/Leninist power structures. Which claimed they were aspirationally communist. The same way Jeffry Dahlmer was aspirationally a humanist.
Nah, the power structure is just cannibalizing itself to try to preserve itself again. The Russian people will continue to be screwed.
Jeffry Dahlmer was just a lonely guy looking for human connection.
