Today, I questioned the Prime Minister on his plan if Donald Trump abandons our brave Ukrainian allies. If the US won't support Ukraine in its fight against Putin's war machine, the UK and Europe must – and we should use frozen Russian assets to do it.

#Ukraine needs financial support - not political pledges. I urge the #EU to move on using the frozen Russian assets for Ukraine’s needs. The future of Europe’s security is decided in 🇺🇦.

Reform's Richard Tice MP 🇬🇧 calls for Starmer to "utilise" the leverage of frozen Russian assets in Europe against Putin. The EU is currently debating whether to seize Russian assets - but the UK does not participate in those meetings because of Brexit, thanks to Tice and others.

Merz declared that he would continue arming Kyiv until "real negotiations" begin. "For real negotiations to be possible, Putin needs to be clearly shown the hopelessness of his military actions. And that's why I say: we will not weaken our support for Ukraine. We will support the Ukrainian people for as long as necessary. And we want to make frozen Russian assets available precisely for this purpose. Putin must understand that he has no chance of winning this war at the expense of the European order of freedom and peace."

- We should use all the frozen Russian assets to make Russia pay for the damage that they have caused Ukraine. - Ukraine belongs in the EU. We should aim to open all negotiation clusters this year. Key messages when I met with EU colleagues today.

German Chancellor Merz on frozen assets as the EU's most powerful tool against Russia: "We have important days and weeks ahead for Ukraine, which we are approaching in close coordination. We are adhering to the following strategy. First, we are doing everything in our power to support Kiev in the face of the Russian aggressor. Now we intend to use the most powerful tool we have – to finally force Moscow to the negotiating table. Together, we want to achieve a decision in Brussels on the use of frozen Russian assets. The negotiations that we Europeans conducted in close coordination in Geneva have made initial progress toward developing a comprehensive peace plan. We are continuing this work together. To this end, our advisers are in constant contact with Ukraine and the United States. At the same time, we adhere to a clear principle: no decisions about Ukraine and Europe without the participation of Ukrainians and Europeans." Were Europeans involved in the US-Ukraine negotiations in Geneva? This is the first I've heard of this.

The case for seizing Russian state assets in European bank accounts. I was speaking in Parliament Sq at Ukraine Solidarity Campaign 🇺🇦✊🏽🚩's protest. We must seize the hundreds of billions frozen across Europe, to help defend and rebuild Ukraine. It's vital, it's legal and it's the right thing to do.

Lavrov and Peskov both said that Russia wants no negotiations with Ukraine and Europe. Yesterday, the leaders of Ukraine, United Kingdom, France and Germany met in London and outlined the conditions for reaching a just and lasting peace. These conditions include an immediate ceasefire, starting negotiations from the current positions and robust security guarantees for Ukraine. Putin has no interest in peace, negotiations or anything constructive. Putin can only be forced towards peace.

TAYLOR: Putin has no interest in negotiations or ending this war. So the problem hasn’t been on US or Ukrainian side, it’s clearly on Russian side in terms of negotiations. When Putin finally realizes he can’t win, he’ll come to negotiating table himself to look for a ceasefire.

Putin on frozen Russian assets in Europe: “Theft is not the right definition for this. Theft is secret. Here it’s done in the open, so it’s burglary. The consequences are very serious for the burglars” Meanwhile, Putin has been stealing Ukrainian lives and territory since 2014

❗️Using frozen Russian assets is the fastest option for Europe in the matter of securing Ukraine, — Zelensky According to the president, Belgium is quite logically blocking the decision on the use of Russian assets, because it is in its accounts that most of the assets are located, so the country needs certain guarantees. Zelensky added that Ukraine believes that Europe will find a tool for using the assets.

ZELENSKYY: Putin is preparing new strikes on Ukraine, additional mobilization in Russia, and expansion of the war. It's important that today EU adopted 21st sanctions package against Russian aggression. I am grateful to every leader and every country in Europe for this support.

Trump seems to want to end the Ukraine War, and I'm all for it. Negotiating a ceasefire means dealing with Putin. That's the reality. So when Trump's critics whine about Trump "talking to a dictator," I have to wonder if they have any interest in peace at all. How else are you going to get it except by negotiating with Putin?

Confiscating Russian sovereign assets sets a destabilizing precedent for Western countries to seize assets to end a war they are not openly involved in. These funds function as leverage in negotiations, and removing them increases the risk of escalation and retaliation. This directly undermines President Trump’s diplomatic efforts to end the killing in Ukraine. Diplomacy requires leverage, realism, and restraint.

If Europe wants a real voice in the peace process that will shape our future security, it must act decisively and put Russian frozen assets to use. This is a powerful tool to support Ukraine and to finally push Russia to drop its goals and genuinely engage in peace.

🇺🇸🇷🇺🇪🇺 Senator Blumenthal says they intend to seize frozen Russian assets in Europe to pay for weapons. But importantly they want to use the minerals deal to send more weapons to Ukraine, not to get the money back as Trump intended. More military aid for Ukraine is available.

🇷🇺 Putin’s Obsession and the Impending Collapse "Putin is very obsessed with Ukraine because Ukraine was the best part of the USSR—everything from weapons to machinery and transport was manufactured in Ukraine. And if Russia wants to revive the USSR or create a new Russian empire, it cannot do so without Ukraine. Putin will not stop until Russia suffers a collapse, until Russia as a state falls apart. Currently, Europe cannot even seize frozen Russian assets and transfer them to Ukraine—this means that Europe does not realize the threat, and the situation will only get worse."
