Germany’s Proposal to Use $106B From Frozen Russian Assets for Ukraine Fails – Report
12:20 GMT 15.02.2026 (Updated: 15:20 GMT 15.02.2026) Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova earlier stressed that "any unilateral actions regarding the country’s sovereign assets, such as indefinite freezing or attempting to present their de facto confiscation as a 'reparations loan,’" grossly violate international law."
French President Emmanuel Macron rejected Germany’s proposal to use $106 billion from frozen Russian assets to purchase US weapons for Ukraine at a meeting on the sidelines of the Munich Security Conference, German media reports.
He insisted that frozen Russian assets should primarily be used for deliveries of weapons systems manufactured in Europe, according to the report.
The European Commission earlier sought EU members’ consent to use frozen Russian sovereign assets for Ukraine aid as they discussed a sum of between $219 billion and $249 billion in the form of a loan.
The Russian Foreign Ministry stressed that the EU's idea of Russia paying reparations to Ukraine is unrealistic, and that Brussels has long been engaged in the theft of Russian assets.
