Polish Foreign Minister Rados\u0142aw Sikorski<\/strong> stated that granting Ukraine a reparation loan<\/strong> could be decisive for the outcome of the Russia\u2013Ukraine war. He made the remarks following a meeting of NATO foreign ministers in Brussels, according to PAP<\/strong>,\u00a0UATV English\u00a0<\/a>reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThe reparation loan is an issue that could determine the outcome of this war, as well as the results of these negotiations. If Putin realizes that Ukraine has these funds and can finance both the state and its defense capabilities for 2\u20133 years, he will have to consider whether he can continue his war,\u201d Sikorski emphasized.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

He joined European leaders in urging the Belgian Prime Minister<\/strong> to release these frozen Russian assets to aid Ukraine, calling it \u201cthe most important factor in accelerating the peace process,\u201d while their blocking is very dangerous for both Ukraine and Europe<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sikorski also stressed that European countries should share responsibility and risks with Belgium<\/strong> regarding the use of Russian assets to support Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen<\/strong> said that the new EU proposal for a reparation loan<\/strong> using frozen Russian assets addresses nearly all of Belgium\u2019s concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reparation loan is part of a broader EU plan to strengthen Ukraine\u2019s financial resilience<\/strong> amid continued Russian aggression, alongside EU borrowing to meet Ukraine\u2019s 2026\u20132027 financial needs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Previously, Euroclear<\/strong>, which holds most of Russia\u2019s frozen assets, warned that European governments could face higher debt costs<\/strong> if the EU uses these assets to provide Ukraine with a \u20ac140 billion loan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
