President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called on Ukraine’s partners to create a legal framework for the use of frozen Russian assets to support Ukraine.

Source: Volodymyr Zelenskyy on X (Twitter)

Quote: “The decision to use frozen Russian assets to support Ukraine will be an entirely just and legitimate response to Russia’s aggression against Ukraine. It will send the right message to all would-be aggressors around the world: attacking another state does not pay off; it makes the aggressor pay. I encourage partners to move quickly on relevant legal frameworks. This year, we must achieve tangible progress toward using frozen Russian assets for the benefit of Ukraine. We firmly rely on G7 leadership on this matter.”

    “legal framework for an act of war, got it, on it Mr Z”

    I love this. Let’s go with this. Asset seizures are an act of war. Therefore, Russia has already declared war on the US. We begin clearing the skies in five minutes. 😂

        Thanks for acknowledging how absolutely meritless your original statement was, lmao. Swear to God, tankies all share a single brain cell.

            Of course, fewer Western tanks means more Russian tanks able to secure Ukraine for genocide (content warning: death), and we all know there’s nothing you cretins love more than genocide. :)

              There’s one genocide happening and it’s being funded and protected by the US.

              The Russians have killed fewer civilians in 2 fucking years across the whole front than “Israel” has in 3 months in a tiny fraction of the area.

                  You’re the one pushing to send over weapons and shit, calling me a ‘tankie’

                  and I’m literally just disgusted by the US directly enabling a genocide and that makes me a ‘bootlicker’

                  words mean fucking nothing apparently

                The Russians have killed fewer civilians

                This is not the flex you think it is.
