Zelenskyy hopes EU to be able to decide on use of frozen Russian assets by end of 2025
There are three stages in the issue of using frozen Russian assets: a political one, then a practical decision, and then implementation, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said.
"So, I believe that the decision on frozen Russian assets is extremely important for us, but, in my opinion, there are three stages in this issue. The first is a political decision, then a practical decision, and only then implementation," Zelenskyy said during a press conference with the leaders of the Coalition of the Willing countries and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
According to the president, yesterday Ukraine received a political decision, and this is a positive signal.
"Then a practical decision, which we hope we can make by the end of this year, and only after that – implementation," he added.
