According to Bloomberg sources, the European Union and the G7 countries are considering the use of frozen assets of Russia to finance the restoration of Ukraine . In particular, the idea of using more than $ 250 billion locked assets of the Russian Central Bank as collateral to provide financial assistance to the country is discussed.
According to the plan, the Allies of Ukraine can release debt obligations that will be repaid by frozen Russian assets. At the same time, supporters of this idea believe that in any case, Russia will be obliged to compensate for the harm caused to Ukraine. If this does not happen, measures for frozen assets of the Russian Federation may be taken.
Ursula von Der Lyen, the President of the European Commission, also confirmed the intention to use Russia -related money in favor of Ukraine , stressed that "Russia has to pay for the long -term restoration of Ukraine."
Creating a special structure for the implementation of the plan involves the release of bonds with a zero coupon provided with a withdrawal. As a pledge, the use of assets in International Depository and Bank assets is planned.
The discussion of this idea is currently at the technical level, and the political decision has not yet been made. However, according to all instructions, this plan can become an important tool in financial support and restoration of Ukraine after Russian aggression.
