According to peskov, russia will not only not give up the rights to the frozen assets, but will also not stop "protecting" them. He added that some EU countries oppose the use of frozen assets for the reconstruction of Ukraine, but did not name these countries.
The position of some EU countries against the use of frozen russian assets for the needs of Ukraine does not mean a change in Europe's rhetoric in general
He also added that the kremlin is closely monitoring the situation around the increase in US duties and is carefully analyzing the possible consequences.
Remind
The European Union transferred 1 billion euros to Ukraine within the ERA initiative. This is the third tranche from revenues from frozen Russian assets - these funds will go to priority expenditures of the state budget.
In addition, Ukraine hopes to receive more than 13 billion euros from the European Union by the end of this year within the same ERA initiative.
