Russia said on Thursday (October 23 ) it will deliver a "painful response" to any move by the European Union to seize its frozen assets.
The warning came as EU leaders met in Brussels to discuss a plan to use the assets as the basis for a 140 billion euro ($163 billion) "reparations loan" to Ukraine.

"Any actions with Russian assets without Russia's consent are null and void from the standpoint of international and contract law. There is no legal way to take someone else's funds without hurting the pockets and prestige of those who expropriate them," Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told reporters.
