The issue of Russian assets is at the agenda of the EU foreign ministers in the format of “Hymns” in Copenhagen, said the High EU representative on foreign affairs Kai Callas on August 30.

She noted that this is an informal meeting, which is not planned to make a decision. On the agenda will be, in particular, the Russian war against Ukraine:

“We see that Russia does not want peace, although a lot of diplomatic efforts are made to bring Zelensky and Russia to the negotiation table.”

Callas said that diplomats plan to delve into the issue of frozen assets of Russia.

“There are pros and cons. There are some delicate moments about this, but we really need to have a reasoned discussion about this – what are the risks? Because we have to have a strategy. We cannot imagine that in the event of ceasefire or peace agreement, these assets would be returned to Russia if they do not pay their reparations, ”the diplomat said.

The profits from frozen Russian assets are partially used to assist Ukraine. In particular, In August of Ukraine received it 1 billion euros within the ERA tool.

The Extraordinary Revenue Acceleration (ERA) of G7 provides Ukraine with approximately $ 50 billion in the form of loans secured by profit from frozen Russian sovereign assets. These funds are aimed at supporting the budget, military needs and restoration of Ukraine’s infrastructure.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called in July The participants of the Conference on the Restoration of Ukraine to use not only interest from these assets, but also the assets themselves.
