    Generally, no. In this case, yes.

    It's not stealing though. Russia broke international laws when they invaded Ukraine.
    Do stuff like that and you'll have to face the consequences.

    As I understand it, this is not the government but the bank which happens to be a private business and can close anyone's account so long as they don't touch the money. This is move of political nature, obviously. RT can find a new bank.

    TBH I thought this was going to be a RT article about how people in the UK are being denied access to their bank accounts.

    The bank belongs to the government. RT are being forced to move banks because the UK has sanctions in place against Russia and having Russia's state owned news agency banking with a UK state owned private bank is a bit dodgy.

    Two memorable statements from the last time I lowerd myself to watching it, at the beginning of the Syrian conflict:

    British invading Syria with tanks, proof of this being a video of a tank driving through the rubble of a house in Homs (the video was in fact of a russian-built tank being operated by the Syrian army, having just fired on civillians).

    The protesters in Syria that preceeded the civil war were actually "CIA agents in brown-face" (I shit you not)

    Something about a secret Nazi conspiracy in the british and european governments and their evil plans to take over the world.

    And so many more I'm glad to have forgotten.

    It doesn't matter though, UK doesn't know what "freedom of the press" really means.
    Now it's time to ban RT completely, North Koreans shouldn't hold any records.

    This happens all the time, I don't see the fuss. West and Russia are clashing with each other.

    The West is clashing with him, at any rate, for various ulterior motives among which include distraction from having to pay attention to shit that actually matters.

    Kremlin played it smart. Had they simply expressed anger or complaints about it the RBS would most certainly have gone through with it, satisfied with the fact that they could make the Russians angry (just like any russophobe would be). But. Kremlin instead accused them of limiting the Freedom of Speech. This caused RBS and their backers to experience an internal struggle - their russophobia vs. their self-righteousness - and the latter trait won. Which is not surprising since it's so strong in the west. Well played, Kremlin.
