“We must be bolder in seizing hundreds of billions of frozen Russian assets. This starts by taking the billions in interest that these assets are producing and sending them to Ukraine.,” Sunak wrote.

In your opinion, the G7 should also “find legal ways to confiscate one’s assets and direct those funds to Ukraine”.

For the head of the Government, it is also necessary to go further in the military support provided to Ukrainian troops, with more long-distance weapons, more drones and more ammunition.

And in the same way, he called for the greatest boldness to “hit the Russian war economy”And to improve our own defense industries.

“What a tribute to the struggle of Alexey Navalny would be to hold the Russian State responsible for its actions”, considered Sunak.

The Prime Minister believes that Ukrainian war raises the question of whether the West is willing to do whatever is necessary to protect freedom and security in the Europe and beyond: “We’ve been asked this question before and we always answer with a resounding yes.”.
