Is Vlad The Bad Running Out Of Cash?
The BBC News Channel has just reported, that in a speech Vlad the Bad has said, that if you have too much money in your Russian Bank account, that can’t be supported by your salary, then he’ll seize it.
I suppose he needs to pay the gas bill on his little dacha in Sochi.
He should start with his oligarchs first thees a few billion knocking around there.
The gas bill that is still being paid is him supplying Germany and half of Europe with 100’s millions of Euros worth a gas a day. If they really want to heave the pressure on thats where sanctions will bite instantaneously.

Indeed; if poor little Poots needs more gas then let’s just stop buying it; we’d hate to see him feel the cold.
But he shouldn’t worry – it will be hot enough where he’s going before long. As Ukraine’s Ambassador to the UN, Sergiy Kyslytsya, said: “There is no purgatory for war criminals. They go straight to hell.”

Russia has large foreign currency and gold reserves. It may have trouble spending the currency, which will be held in bank accounts rather than cash, but gold – not really.
