To extend: According to journalists, Russia can agree to the transfer of up to two -thirds of frozen assets for the restoration of Ukraine within a peace agreement. The other part can go to the Russian -controlled territory. Russia can agree to the use of frozen $ 300 billion of its sovereign assets for the reconstruction of Ukraine. But the Kremlin insists that some of these funds should be spent on 20% of Ukrainian territories that are now occupied by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

About it reports Reuters with reference to sources familiar with the question. After the start of a full -scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the United States and their allies imposed a ban on transactions with the Central Bank and the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation. Sovereign Russian assets worth $ 300-350 billion were blocked.

So far, the discussion between Russia and the United States is at an early stage, but in Moscow, they discuss the idea that Russia could offer to use most of frozen assets to restore Ukraine in the framework of a possible peace agreement, according to three sources. A year ago, the World Bank estimated that Ukraine's reconstruction and restoration will cost $ 486 billion.

According to journalists, that Russia can agree to the use of frozen funds as assistance in the restoration of Ukraine, has not been reported before. And from this you can leave the idea of ​​what concessions in the Russian Federation are ready to go. For his part, Trump insists on US access to Ukrainian minerals as a refund for the support of Washington. The journalists failed to find out whether it was discussed at a meeting in Saudi Arabia.

"Frozen sovereign assets of Russia have become the subject of intense debate in the West, and some offer, in fact, to transfer them to Ukraine through a complex" repatriation loan ", - reads in the publication. One source reported that Russia can agree to transfer up to two -thirds of assets for recovery Ukraine, subject to accountability guarantees It was said that Moscow will agree to use Ukraine's restoration, but it is too early to talk about specific shares, where frozen assets would go.
