The European Union is considering frozen Russian assets as one of the future sources of funding for Ukraine.
European Commissioner for Economy and Productivity Valdis Dombrovskis told this to journalists ahead of a meeting of the EU Economic and Financial Affairs Council in Brussels on Tuesday, according to an Ukrinform correspondent.
He stated that the economy and finance ministers were discussing various options for providing continued support to Ukraine. Among those options was the use of proceeds from frozen Russian assets, following the model of the loan program coordinated by the Group of Seven (G7).
Dombrovskis noted that some proposals from the Ukrainian side were also being examined, though this work remained in its early stages.
He emphasized the need to focus increasingly on concessional financing, pointing out that Ukraine was approaching the limits of debt sustainability. He stressed that any loans intended for 2026 should be granted on favorable terms. According to him, the EU will soon need to move toward more specific decisions and determine which options to prioritize based on ongoing discussions and feedback from member states.
