Russia may cut diplomatic ties with the United States if Washington seizes Russia's frozen assets due to the war in Ukraine, Russian news agency Interfax reported, citing Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov.

The United States "should not act under the illusion that Russia is dependent on diplomatic relations with them," Mr. Ryabkov said.

Russia has described relations with the United States as "below zero" because of the United States' military and financial aid to Ukraine.

Mr. Ryabkov said that the severance of relations would not be initiated by Russia, but that such a thing could be prompted by a number of factors.

"The reason could be the confiscation of assets, further military escalation, many other things. I would not like to enter into negative predictions," he said, adding that Moscow was "ready for any scenario."

Some Western politicians are pushing for Russia's frozen assets, worth some $300 billion, to be given to Ukraine to help rebuild its war-torn economy.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Friday that any such move would deal a severe blow to the global financial system.

He said no country that confiscated Russian assets would be left alone by Moscow, and that in such a scenario Russia would consider which Western assets it could seize in retaliation.
