Question: The issue of “frozen” Russian assets is taking up a lot of your time and energy. Is that fair?

The pressure surrounding this issue is incredible. I have a team working day and night on it. It would be a great story: taking money from the wicked guy, Putin, and giving it to the good guy, Ukraine. But stealing frozen assets from another country, its sovereign wealth fund, has never been done before. This is money belonging to the Russian Central Bank. Even during World War II, Germany’s money was not confiscated. During a war, sovereign assets are frozen. And at the end of the war, the losing state must give up all or part of these assets to compensate the victors. But who really believes that Russia will lose in Ukraine? It’s a fairy tale, a total illusion. It is not even desirable for it to lose and for instability to take hold in a country that has nuclear weapons. And who believes that Putin will calmly accept the confiscation of Russian assets? Moscow has let us know that in the event of seizure, Belgium and I, personally, would feel the effects “for eternity.” That seems like a rather long time to me… Russia could also confiscate certain Western assets: Euroclear has 16 billion in Russia. All Belgian factories in Russia could also be seized
