The reparation loan, for which the EU plans to use the frozen assets of the Russian Federation, will go to the needs of the Ukrainian army if the war continues, and for restoration and macro-financial stability in the event of peace. President Vladimir Zelensky said this on Monday, December 15, answering questions from journalists, Ukrinform reports.. “Today, a reparation loan or any format that is calculated for the amount of Russian frozen assets is from 150 to 200, 210 billion dollars, this is a Game Changer (a factor that changes the game - ed.. This is a financial guarantee of security for Ukraine. Unfortunately, we have to think about plan B. Plan A - ending the war. Plan B - continuation of Russian aggression. If plan B, and Russian aggression continues (...), we are counting on at least 40-45 billion euros per year in financial assistance. That is, a tranche of this reparation loan," According to him, during the war these funds will be used to support the army, the defense sector - weapons, air defense, as well as for financial needs. If there is no war, these funds, as the president said, will be used to restore Ukraine and as an injection into macro-financial stability. “Imagine, if there is no war, then 45 billion a year is a very serious injection into the macro-financial stability of Ukraine, into our recovery and again into that same “criticism,” but we are no longer talking about support, but about restoring it,” Zelensky said. He also emphasized that these funds will in any case become part of the security guarantees. “This is truly part of our security guarantees, like the fifth article of NATO, like a weapon,” the head of state noted. Zelensky added that if there are problems with the reparation loan, Ukraine is counting on “alternative ways,” although they will be more difficult. As reported, on December 12, the ambassadors of the European Union agreed on a mechanism for the indefinite freezing of €210 billion of Russian assets in Europe, which should prevent their return to Russia outside the sanctions regime. . . .
