Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski has proposed the seizure of €300 billion ($321 billion) in frozen Russian sovereign assets, equivalent to 27.5 trillion rubles. Sikorski's proposal aims to leverage the 'escalation game' with Russia, suggesting that the West can benefit from escalating relations with Russia by confiscating these assets.
