The European Union seized $105 billion in Russian assets and transferred them to Ukraine, thinking it was a masterstroke that would cripple Russia and demonstrate Western resolve. Instead, Russia responded with a three-wave retaliation so devastating that European governments are now quietly panicking:

Russia nationalized $120 billion in European corporate assets, forced all energy sales into rubbles/yuan (rejecting euros entirely), and created a $150 billion BRICS+ Reserve Fund that provides seizure-proof custody for countries terrified of Western financial weaponization. The result: massive capital flight from European assets, euro depreciation, rising borrowing costs for EU governments, and the accelerated collapse of the euro’s reserve currency credibility.

China emerged as the massive winner, offering financial alternatives that dozens of countries are now rushing to adopt, while European companies lost everything they built in Russia over decades. This wasn’t strategic brilliance—this was Europe destroying its own financial credibility for a short-term political win, and Russia just taught them a lesson in economic warfare they’ll never forget.

Germany lost out big time: Russia took over BMW, Volkswagen and Mercedes facilities worth billions.

This isn’t just about Ukraine funding – this is the moment when weaponized finance started consuming itself. The mechanics of this financial warfare are broken down, the doom loop it’s created, and why every central bank in the world is now questioning whether Western financial institutions are safe. The age of consequence-free asset seizure just ended.

As well, when the Bundesbank’s 2013 audit was analysed, it revealed a terrifying truth: for decades, Germany had never physically verified the 1,536 tons of gold it stored in New York. When Germany asked for 300 tons back in 2013 the Fed stalled for seven years. Now Germany is asking for the balance, 1236 tons, and it is obvious that the USA does not have the physical gold so what will be the outcome?

The chaos in the world just escalated enormously paving the way for the Biblical prophesied world leader who will promise peace.
