A $50 billion loan will be provided for Ukraine's rebuilding efforts from the interest generated by Russia's frozen assets held in Western financial institutions
President Joe Biden and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a 10-year security pact at the G7 summit in Italy
The US will provide Ukraine with advanced weapons, intelligence support, advice, and technology to help it defend against Russian forces
In a significant development at the G7 summit in Italy, President Joe Biden and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a 10-year security pact on Thursday. The United States will provide Ukraine with advanced weapons, intelligence support, advice, and technology to help it win the ongoing war against invading Russian forces and deter future aggression. Additionally, the US will lead a $50 billion loan for Ukraine's rebuilding efforts from the interest generated by Russia's frozen assets held in Western financial institutions.
The security pact marks a long-term commitment to Ukraine's defense and comes as tensions between Kyiv and Moscow continue to escalate. The US has consistently resisted pressure from its allies to let Ukraine join NATO, fearing the potential for direct military confrontation with Russia. Instead, this agreement aims to provide Ukraine with the tools it needs to defend itself without provoking further conflict.
The $50 billion loan will be used for rebuilding devastated ports and power plants, purchasing weapons, and closing Ukraine's budget gap. The funds are derived from the approximately $300 billion in assets left by Russian President Vladimir Putin in Western financial institutions before his invasion of Ukraine.
The signing of this security pact follows a series of announcements from G7 leaders regarding their continued support for Ukraine, including new sanctions on individuals and companies helping Russia's war effort. The international community remains committed to standing by Ukraine as it faces ongoing aggression from its eastern neighbor.
Ukrainian forces urgently need more advanced Western weapons to fight invading Russian troops.
The frozen Russian assets, amounting to $325bn, are being held in Belgium and cannot be confiscated from Russia and given to Ukraine.
The plan is to use the interest generated by the frozen assets, about $3bn a year, to fund a loan on the international markets which would provide around $50bn annually to Ukraine.
