The Russian side's reaction to the possible confiscation of frozen assets in Europe will be harsh. This was announced on October 6 by Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko.

"Retaliatory measures will be taken <...> Our reaction will be harsh," RIA Novosti quoted Grushko as saying.

According to him, preliminary work on the response measure has already been carried out. He also added that European countries are following the path of escalation as they provide more and more military and financial assistance to the Kiev regime.
