Modern kleptocracies like Putin's are built on laundering & keeping their looted riches in the free world. This is also their greatest weakness, one the West has not exploited, preferring the fiction of common ground & engagement.

In the old days you could always trust that nobility would put aside their differences when the peasants revolted.
These days you can always trust that the rich will protect the wealth of other rich people from government interference.
