    individuals are looking for ways to withdraw their funds and leave the country before potential account freezes

    Under the motto: You can take my sons but not my money?

    Additionally, the finance ministry is preparing legislation to allow state access to $40 billion in private pension savings

    Nice, robbing pensioners too. This is a shitshow on all sides. Either this is a shit article founded on nothing but hearsay, or the Russian state is growing desperate.

      Ah, they already spent state pension savings, it seems, now they need private ones, too. Sounds about right, I would bet on ‘desperate’, not on ‘fake’
