Zelensky said how Ukraine will spend Russia's frozen assets.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky stated that the country will strengthen its army using 250 billion dollars of Russia's frozen assets. He announced this during a meeting with media representatives in Warsaw, where he was alongside Polish President Andrzej Duda, as reported by Ukrinform.
Zelensky noted that transferring all frozen Russian assets to Ukraine will significantly enhance the capabilities of the national army. He emphasized that 'the cheapest guarantee of security for Ukraine is NATO', and the strongest support for the army will be the allocation of 250 billion dollars. Part of these funds will be used for the production of domestically made weapons and the import of types of arms that Ukraine lacks.
Earlier, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands disclosed the actual amount of frozen Russian assets.
