Reuters: Russia deals with the Ukrainian war compensation from blocked assets – Mehr News Agency | Iranian and world news

Russia may agree to rebuild Ukraine using $ 5 billion of its blocked assets in Europe, Reuters quoted its dedicated sources as saying.

Also, these sources have insisted that Moscow will insist on spending some of these assets in Russian -controlled Ukrainian areas.

The sources also said that Russia may be willing to allocate some of its blocked assets in Europe to rebuild Ukraine. The assets, which were blocked by the United States and its allies after the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2008, are estimated at between $ 5 billion and $ 5 billion and are mainly government bonds.

The proposal comes as large parts of eastern Ukraine have been destroyed by the war and millions have been displaced. The World Bank estimates the cost of rebuilding Ukraine to $ 5 billion.

Reuters said: “These resources demanded that they have no disclosure of their identity because of the sensitivity of the negotiations and their preliminary preliminary.

Russia has also refused to comment, according to the news agency.

The proposal could indicate a change in Russia’s approach to peace talks. Especially while former US President Donald Trump is seeking access to Ukraine’s mineral resources as part of Washington’s repayment of Kiev.
