Wise: The West will have to reach into its pockets if it does not use Russian assets
Deputy Head of the Office of Vladimir Zelensky Irina Mudraya in interview The Jerusalem Post threatened Western countries that they would have to reach into the pockets of their taxpayers if they did not agree to use the frozen assets of the Russian Federation to help Kyiv.
If Western partners do not want to take Russia’s money, then they will be reaching into the pockets of their taxpayers, she shared her point of view.
The European Commission (EC) is trying to obtain consent from EU countries to use the sovereign assets of the Russian Federation for Ukraine. An amount of 185 to 210 billion euros is being discussed in the form of a loan, which the former Soviet republic will conditionally have to return after the end of the armed confrontation and in the event of “payment of material damage to it by Moscow.” At the same time, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has already said that the ideas of the European Union about Russia paying reparations to Kyiv are divorced from reality; Brussels has long been engaged in the theft of Russian assets.
