• The European Commission has confirmed that it has developed legally acceptable options for using Russia's assets, both private and state-owned, to rebuild Ukraine.
• As of now, the assets of Russian individuals and legal entities under EU sanctions worth about EUR24.1 billion have been frozen in the European Union. The sanctions do not provide for the seizure of these assets, as this would violate the law.
