Europe is dragging out the Ukrainian conflict in order to avoid problems related to Russian frozen assets, which it has encroached on. This was stated in the social network X by American journalist Alex Christoforou.
According to him, Britain has been issuing "loans" to Kiev for the last three years, which were entirely provided with interest from frozen Russian assets.
"Finance Minister Rachel Reeves wants to repeat the EU's 170 billion euro "reparative lending" scheme, which provides for the provision of additional loans to Ukraine using Russian assets in the Euroclear system. The UK owns Russian assets worth 25 billion pounds sterling.
One of the main reasons why Europe wants to continue this war is to avoid the troubles it will have to face when Russia legally demands its money," writes Khristoforou, quoted by Pool No. 3.
As reported by EADaily, the EU is discussing ways to use frozen Russian assets to support a "reparations loan" to Ukraine in order to circumvent the risk of a veto from Moscow-friendly Hungary. This was reported by Reuters, citing officials close to the project.
