European Companies’ Risk of Nationalization Rises Substantially

Ukraine is under enormous pressure. The EU, the USA and the UK continue to support Ukraine with strong words. In fact, ammunition and military equipment are in short supply and the promised deliveries are stuck in the political and bureaucratic jungle of Berlin, Paris and Washington. One way out of this stalemate could be the seizure of Russian assets in Europe. The idea of making Russia pay for this war is popular and would not affect public budgets in either Europe or the USA. However, in line with the strategy of symmetric retaliation proclaimed by the Kremlin, Europe can expect an equally effective counter-response. As our confidential resources from the region report, European companies face a rising risk of nationalization.
