      nope, white countries maintain that your investments are safe there regardless of your politics or national origins.

      now that they are seizing property based on politics, what makes that any different from any other country that expropriates property as needed?

        Not sure where my reply went.

        Russia has stolen airliners from the west that were under lease. If you act like an animal then you get treated as one.

          russia doesn’t pretend to be a rules based international order™ country.

        That’s not really new and a fair confiscation since Russia has stolen multiple airliners.
