Well, why not aim for both?
Is some of this already financed from the interest of frozen russian assets in EU? There was some news about this recently but I don’t understand all the abbrevations in the press release.
Somehow risking it all for the slight chance of some little money seems worth it. But these guys could be so much more effective and bring so much more life improvements by risking it instead in protests and civilian unrest to topple their regime.
The shitty thing is people are dying already, we’re well past that point. What needs to change is that somehow still dying on the front is more acceptable than risking it in some kind of mass protest movement.

In a war you rarely have independent proof, that’s the point. So there is nothing wrong with being a bit cautious and sceptical when hearing news and I feel you are being a bit harsh.
And for sure propaganda exists on both sides, I guess no one is seriously disputing this. At the same time I have no doubts that being a PoW is 1000 times better than being in a Russian trench. But still I can acknowledge that reports like this are not some kind of independent journalism.

As much as I would love that, probably they don’t have their fortune in cash savings but most probably put it into diversified investments of some sorts.
I’ve read multiple times that this is the strategy on purpose. Somehow it is deemed to be more impactful to deliver the sanctions step by step and also keep some ammo to be able to react to the worst crimes. I don’t necessarily agree with that but my understanding of these matters is also limited.
