- Zakharova called the discussion of confiscation of assets of the Russian Federation by Britain and the EU insanity


The discussion between the UK and the European Union (EU) on the confiscation of Russian assets is insanity. This was announced on March 19 by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova.
"The insanity of this meeting is that Britain is not a member of the European Union, and the European Union has been divorcing Britain for a long time and sharing all the damages and costs," she said on Sputnik radio.
The diplomat asked what relation two entities that do not interact with each other have to the money of a third party that is also not related to them.
She also added that piracy has always been legalized in Britain.
On March 18, Bloomberg reported that the UK and the EU are intensifying discussions on the confiscation of Russian assets. The meeting between the country's Foreign Minister David Lammy and the head of the EU diplomatic service, Kai Kallas, will consider how Europe can create the necessary legal and financial basis for the seizure of Russian assets.
