    I’m guessing because a lot of them aren’t clearly marked “Russian state war chest part 12”, but rather things like “Gazprom reserve fund” or “Oligarchs discretionary fund” which would muddy the border between state and private assets.

    State assets might be fine to seize to cover state costs, but the legality of seizing the others’ might by grayer.
