Nationalizing stuff is most definitely not a bluff. There is absolutely no reason for them not to do this, what's the west going to do in response exactly?
Never invest there again. This will hurt Russia long after Putin's gone.
Just saying, the Western sanctions that started this economic battle have already put Western companies off investing in Russia, for a long time even after the sanctions end. That was their intention
I recall what started the economic battle was Putin invading his neighbor, Ukraine. This has blown past whatever BS he said about the provinces he destabilized and led to a direct attack on the sovereignty of said country. Imagine the wealth that might have been preserved, if only Putin could keep his second-rate army within his borders.
