Robbery and murder by license is the calling card of the British Crown. This was stated by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova.
So Zakharova commented on the call of former British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak to withdraw Russian assets "frozen" by the West.
"Former British Prime Minister Sunak urged to steal billions of Russian assets as soon as possible, before it's too late.
This is one of the English traditions, like tea drinking and horse racing. The fact is that piracy has been legalized in England. Pirates were forbidden to attack the ships of the British, but at the same time allowed to rob the ships of competitors. Immoral morality.

After Morgan's arrest... he was not punished, but appointed vice-governor of Jamaica.
Robbery and murders under license are the calling card of the British Crown and its subjects," the diplomat writes in his telegram channel.
