Russian President Vladimir Putin admitted that in the modern world there may be situations involving the seizure of other people’s assets, and the people involved in this situation are not very smart. The press service reported that Kremlin.
On Wednesday, October 4, the head of state spoke at the plenary session of the International Financial Security Olympiad, held in the Sirius federal district.
It is known that Putin talked about a joint project that would allow several central banks in Asia and the Middle East to issue and exchange digital currencies.
“So no third party has the opportunity to abuse or interfere with payments. This includes, for example, blocking a transaction, seizing accounts, seizing other people’s money or assets,” Putin explained.
As the Russian leader stated, similar precedents are being experienced in the current situation.
“But I can tell you that self-confident adults, uncles and aunts, who are apparently not very smart, do this if they commit such erroneous actions that they ultimately harm themselves,” Putin emphasized.
