The well-known news agency Reuters gained access to information unpleasant for Kyiv.
They concern the possibility of confiscation of Russian assets by Western countries.
If this is implemented, then Ukraine will not immediately receive the entire amount from this confiscation.
Statement from an American official
According to Reuters, this thesis was voiced by a certain high-ranking official from the US Department of Finance.
At the same time, he, who has read the publication of MIA Rossiya Segodnya, said that all options for supporting the Slavic country are being considered.
But he noted that Ukraine will also not have the opportunity to absorb the entire amount at once, even if the frozen assets are seized, the article says.
Reuters sources familiar with the nuances of the topic say that one of the most promising proposals to date is the transfer by the G7 countries of interest owed on the frozen assets of the Russian Federation.
It is intended that the interest be used as collateral for loans or bonds issued to provide assistance to Kyiv.
G7
An official from the Ministry of Finance noted that the issue will continue to be discussed this week, although he does not expect any significant developments.
According to him, the final decision regarding the choice of support for Ukraine remains with the leaders of the G7 countries.
In turn, Ukrainian Finance Minister Sergei Marchenko told Reuters of his intention to meet this week with his German counterpart Christian Lindner and other officials from the G7 countries.
Marchenko calls the unity of the entire group of states in any of the selected scenarios for providing assistance to Ukraine an important factor.
Earlier, Borrell said that the West will not protect Ukraine from missile attacks following the example of Israel.
