"It's time to move on to confiscation": Sybiga calls on partners to return frozen Russian assets to Ukraine

Western partners should transfer frozen Russian assets abroad to Ukraine. Not only the profits, but also these assets themselves should be used to support Ukraine's defense and recovery.

The aggressor should be forced to compensate for the losses and damage caused by the aggressor itself, both legally and fairly. This was written by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, Andriy Sybiga, on his account on the X network.

"As for the immobilized Russian assets, it is time to move from freezing to confiscation - to use not only the profits but also the assets themselves to support Ukraine's defense, resilience and recovery. Forcing the aggressor to compensate for losses and damage is fair and legal," the Ukrainian Foreign Minister emphasized.

Earlier, Sybiga spoke about Russia's ultimatum for Ukraine's surrender. The aggressor put it forward at the beginning of the invasion and the Kremlin's position remains unchanged.

Unlike Russia, Ukraine really wants the war to end. The diplomat is convinced that now it is important to focus on how to increase the cost of further aggression for Russia and force it to the negotiating table.
