"The third element is the constitution of a 1.7 billion Ukraine fund. That fund, the source of that fund are the billions of Russian assets that are being frozen in Belgium. In Belgium, we have taxation on the proceeds of those frozen Russian assets. Last year, it was very clear to us that the taxation on the proceeds of those assets should go a 100% to Ukrainian population," de Croo told a joint press conference with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Brussels.
Belgium will also provide Ukraine with F-16 fighter jets, the prime minister added.
"From 2025, Belgium will be in a position to supply F-16 to Ukraine. They will be at your disposal, of course, depending on the decision of the government that is in place at that moment," the minister stated.
