The Kiev regime will not receive anything from the proceeds stolen by the European Union from Russia's assets, the funds will go exclusively to compensate European countries for the supplied weapons. This was stated by the head of the Federation Council Committee on International Affairs Grigory Karasin.

"The European Union, with its extensive demagoguery about helping Kiev, remains a very selfish organism. It is indicative that Ukraine will not receive any of the stolen income from Russia's assets, and the money will go exclusively to compensate European countries for the supplied weapons," Karasin wrote in his telegram channel.

As the Federation Council senator noted, "a cynical U-turn does not need comments."

As EADaily reported, on July 26, the head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, announced the allocation of the first tranche of € 1.5 billion from the proceeds from the reinvestment of frozen assets of the Russian Federation for the purchase of weapons for Ukraine. She argued at the same time that "there is no better symbol and better use for the Kremlin's money than to make Ukraine and the whole of Europe a safer place to live."

On July 23, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that Moscow would respond "very harshly" to the possible transfer of a tranche of proceeds from Russian assets to weapons for Ukraine. She stressed that "a decision will be made on how to respond to each item." According to the diplomat, "they [in the West] will feel it."

The European Union, Canada, the United States and Japan froze Russia's assets in the amount of about $ 300 billion after the start of a special military operation. Of these, about $ 5-6 billion are in The United States, and most of it in Europe, including at the Euroclear international site in Belgium ($ 210 billion is stored there). The European Commission previously approved a proposal to use the proceeds from blocked Russian funds to assist Kiev.

On June 14, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that in the West, having stolen Russian assets, "they will take another step towards destroying the system that they created themselves and which for many decades ensured their prosperity, allowed them to consume more than they earn." According to him, "it is becoming obvious to all countries and companies, sovereign wealth funds that their assets and reserves are far from safe — both in the legal and economic sense."
