MOSCOW (Sputnik) – EU countries are unwilling to share in the potential legal fallout associated with the use of immobilized Russian assets, Belgian Foreign Minister Maxime Prevot has said.
“The best way to provide Ukraine with the rapid financial assistance it needs is through a joint European loan, rather than trying to follow a path that provides neither the required legal certainty nor the elimination of systemic financial risks,” Prevot wrote in a social media post Monday.

“It is for a good reason the European countries do not want to assume joint obligations and share risks – something that we have been rationally calling for for many months. Otherwise, why do they refuse such risk mutualization?” Prevot asked.
Earlier in the day, hawkish EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas confirmed that the EU still lacks a consensus on funding for Ukraine.
Prevot separately warned that European officials’ obsession with tapping into Russia’s frozen assets could threaten the Trump-led peace push.
