> **Very clearly this is about stealing the frozen Russian assets!!** [**This is the US and Ukraine with the EU legitimizing the theft of Russian assets.**](https://theconversation.com/by-delaying-a-decision-on-using-russias-frozen-assets-for-ukraine-europe-is-quietly-hedging-its-bets-269507)

[**Latest from Bloomberg**](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2025-11-26/eu-steps-up-pursuit-of-frozen-russian-assets-to-aid-ukraine)

**EU Steps Up Pursuit of Frozen Russian Assets to Aid Ukraine**

**Today’s foreign ministers’ talks, which included Ukraine’s Andrii Sybiha, took place as EU ambassadors met in Brussels. Top of their agenda is the EU’s` plan to use Russian immobilized assets for reparation loans for Ukraine.`**

In her first detailed comments since the emergence of the US-Russia peace plan, European Commissio**`n President Ursula von der Leyen told the European Parliament this morning that the Commission is ready to present a legal text backing its plan to tap the assets `**amid a fresh push by the EU’s executive body to get the deal over the line.

**Tap the assets. That means steal them.**

> **A suggestion in the original US-Russia plan that Washington could lay claim to some of the money as part of Ukraine’s reconstruction unnerved Europe but *appears* to have been dropped.**

**Appearances can be deceiving- The US wants to get their hands on the stolen Russian loot**– **The monetary boost is needed by the US and the EU**

> **Germany is among countries arguing that the developments of the last few days have made the asset negotiations more urgent.**
> 
> However, **Belgium, and others, want more details from the Commission, including on the other funding options for Ukraine outlined by the EU executive in a letter this month.**
> 
> **For von der Leyen and Kallas, the best option is to use Russian assets to help Ukraine finance itself.**
> 
> **As von der Leyen told lawmakers this morning: “We have to find a way to move forward, to find a way to stop the killing, to help Ukraine rebuild and reconstruct.”**

**von der Leyen and Kallas want the money to prop up the faltering EU. The US is looking for some cash infusion too. This is, in my opinion, insanity.**
