    Great idea..! Please proceed to steal Russia Foreign Reserve and give to Ukraine.... No need to talk about International Law anymore because stealing the assets of a sovereign state is already in breach of International Law no matter how you want to justice your decision? Instead of discussing means and ways of how to break International Law, you should instead delve into the repercussion of you decision....especially its impact on the US led world financial system and the USD?

But according to the 14th amendment we're all born has national citizens. For the 14th amendment there was no such citizenship as a US Federal citizen. The definition of a national citizen is. A person born property of the government! Does that sound like anything that protected our fundamental freedoms? Does that sound like anything from the United States Republic constitution of we the people that backs up our fundamental freedoms? You know we're promised a representative Republican form of government! They keep shouting democracy this democracy that! Truth is we're not a democratic democracy of any type! We're not a democracy! We're supposed to be a Republic! And yes if you look up the definitions of what they are a republic is different from a democracy!

    "Nemo plus juris transfereat quam ipse habet" in Latin, which translates to "No one can transfer more rights than he himself has" in English. This principle is rooted in both Latin and American law, emphasizing that a person cannot transfer or delegate more authority or power than they themselves possess. Thus it's illegal and embezzlement and misappropriation of funds which is a felony.
