    It would be hilarious for the US and/or the EU freeze his assets and punch his market influence to the ground if they accuse him of espionage.

      Nationalizing the satellites that we paid for as a national security asset sure seems reasonable here, seeing as he likely broke a contract when he disabled them.

      Imagine if Lockheed disabled an allied F16’s targeting computer during a mission; there would be hell to pay.
