For someone to sell, there needs to be someone to buy.
GP is saying that nobody sane is gonna buy these securities, so divesting isn’t really possible, and thus blocking divestiture is kinda meaningless. You’re blocking people from doing something they can’t do anyway.

It may not seem like a wise investment to the average HNer but there is an entire world of investing other people's money on different kinds of assets. And Russia has a lot of desirable assets that could reap dividends after the war is over.
