The European Commission presented three new options for extending sanctions against the frozen assets of the Central Bank of the russian federation to EU ambassadors.

These proposals are aimed at ensuring the continued use of these assets to support the $50 billion G7 loan to Ukraine.

This initiative is an important part of the agreement reached by the G7 and EU leaders in June. Back then, it was decided to use the interest from russian assets frozen due to sanctions to finance assistance to Ukraine, which is defending itself from a full-scale invasion by a terrorist country.
