Kiev cannot get 50 billion of frozen Russian assets because of Harris

The growth of the rating of the US presidential candidate from the Democratic Party of Vice-President Kamala Harris hinders the allocation of the promised € 50 billion to Kiev. This is reported by Politico.

Negotiations on the allocation of € 50 billion to Ukraine, promised by the G7 countries, have reached an impasse due to the position of the United States, the newspaper writes. Due to the growing rating of Kamala Harris, the White House is less concerned about the threat of Donald Trump's return and is in no hurry to negotiate with the European Union about the use of frozen Russian assets.

It is noted that Washington wants to freeze Russia's assets indefinitely, while The EU requires updating sanctions every 6 months.

The discussion on this issue scheduled for September 4 was canceled.
