France supports the transfer of revenues from the frozen Russian assets to Ukraine
On May 22, the Council of the EU supported the transfer of revenues from the frozen assets of the Russian Federation to Ukraine, which will be carried out twice a year.
At the same time, the US took the initiative for a new aid package for Ukraine in the amount of 50 billion euros in the form of a loan secured by the profits from the frozen assets of the RF.
We are open to the idea of mobilising income from these assets as best and as quickly as possible within the framework of international law, noted the head of the French Ministry of Finance, Bruno Le Maire.
It is noted that this proposal has already been supported by Canada and the UK.
French President Emmanuel Macron also supported the permission to strike Russia with Western weapons.
The French leader reminded that missile attacks on Ukraine are carried out precisely from the territory of Russia.
We must allow them to neutralise the military bases from which the missiles are launched, said Emmanuel Macron.
