The European Union wants to help restore Ukraine at the expense of Russian assets

October 3, 2025

The European Union intends to help restore Ukraine using frozen Russian funds.

“We must, on the one hand, respect European law and, on the other hand, international law. This is the challenge. At the same time, I want to stress that we have to be innovative in this area, work in a way that finds solutions,” said Anders Anlid, Director General of the Swedish National Trade Authority.

He also stressed that the task force should move forward as soon as possible, but it is “a very difficult and ambitious task”.

Previously, the Belgian government received “windfall” revenue through taxes on a percentage of frozen Russian assets. The amount of profit was 625 million euros.
