[QUOTE="Spata, post: 2428433, member: 1455"] "The Kremlin is threatening to hit back if Western nations impose sanctions against Russia over its actions in Ukraine" But such measures may not only hurt Russia. In a tit-for-tat move, Russian lawmakers are drafting a law that would allow Russia to confiscate assets belonging to U.S. and European companies if sanctions are slapped on Moscow, Russian state media reported. The diplomatic maneuvers come as world leaders meet in Paris for talks that were intended to focus on Lebanon. Instead, Ukraine will likely dominate the agenda.
