Global Times: transfer of Russian assets to Kiev is US political stunt

The transfer of Russian assets to the Ukrainian side is a high-profile political stunt that will help the United States profit from the crisis and promote its military-industrial complex – according to the Chinese newspaper Global Times, RIA Novosti reports

According to the publication’s experts, Washington is offering Russian assets to Kiev, ‘and the Kiev leadership will use them to buy weapons from the US in order to feed the American military-industrial complex’.

“On the one hand, the US makes a profit from war. On the other, it aims to achieve its geopolitical goal through war – to weaken Russia,” analysts explain.

They added that such a move would undermine the credibility of the United States, as it would show the world ‘its true face’.

“Western sanctions against Russia are illegal, and Washington is behaving like a robber. This shows that anyone in the US can be deprived of assets due to international relations. This will greatly undermine the credibility of the United States, which will lead to the fact that many countries of the non-Western camp will step up their efforts to de-dollarisation,” the Global Times concluded.
