I’d give it the same relevance as “Moscow didn’t steal the gold” in any case.

		If you sell something to another party or they deposit it in a bank on your behalf, then the other party didn't steal it.

You didn't answer my question.

Cherrypicking a quote from Stalin who was using sarcastic humor at a banquet when the gold arrived also doesn't refute my point or answer my question.
