I'm so glad they finally did it because we'll finally be able to put the narrative that Ukraine is losing because additional 61 billions wasn't allocated to bed.
It will also destroy the last credibility US financial system have, piss off Russian capitalists and make them invest in the west even less. Win/win/win.
Worse part is that will give maidan regime some more time to push even more Ukrainians into the grinder.
basically
Fuck russia
so brave
Americans will cheer on the collapse of their empire cloaked in the flag, a hand on their heads and a tear in their eyes.
Might as well have that over to some us ghouls in exchange for some old-new-stock weapons that will only prolong the suffering of ukrainians

unlock billions in frozen Russian assets "Ah they're finally returning what they've stole-" for Ukraine
