00:00Especialistas militares afirmam que Putin está a testar a NATO e a Unidade Ocidental

00:07com o envio de drones e caças para o espaço aéreo europeu.

00:12Isto numa altura em que a União está a trabalhar no 19º pacote de sanções a aplicar a Moscouvo,

00:18que inclui nomeadamente a antecipação da data a partir da qual será proibido importar gás natural

00:24e quefeito vindo da Rússia para o bloco europeu.

00:27Mas os Estados Unidos, sob a liderança de Trump, já não estão a impor novas sanções contra a Rússia.

00:57I think the sanctions have been very effective. You can see all the key indicators in the Russian economy are flashing red,

01:03whether that's the interest rate, whether that's the inflation rate, whether that's the rate of public expenditure.

01:09They're talking about raising taxes. They've had to run down the National Welfare Fund.

01:14Gazprom has posted a deficit, is laying people off.

01:17So I think all the indications are that the Russian economy is being put under severe constraints.

01:23But I agree, it's more of a slow puncture than it is a blowout.

01:26And we have to be willing to maintain the pressure for some time to come still,

01:31if we're going to finally squeeze the ability of Russia to finance this awful war.

01:36What would you like Donald Trump to do, though, as part of this war?

01:38Obviously, we know that he's trying to create a trialogue with the United States, Zelensky and Putin,

01:43but Putin has refused to meet President Zelensky.

01:46The first piece is the military side, which is one of the reasons why we're working on the immobilised assets

01:53and the ability to give Ukraine more money with which to purchase weapons.

01:58And we would like to see the United States join in again in the kind of sanctions that we've been doing

02:04in the 17th and the 18th package and the 19th package.

02:07Just, you mentioned the Russian frozen assets, most of which are here in Belgium and Euroclear.

02:12The Commission and other countries who are supportive of this are pains to say this is not confiscation.

02:18But it really does look like confiscation, because it's not likely that Russia is going to get that money back,

02:23because unless, of course, Russia decides to pay for reconstruction,

02:27which is not something that people believe is going to materialise.

02:30So explain how it's not confiscation or what it is.

02:33Well, it's not confiscation, because exactly as you say, Russia will get this back if they pay the reparations.

02:38So, I mean, it's their choice.

02:40If they choose not to pay the money they owe for the destruction they have caused in Ukraine,

02:45then indeed Ukraine has some call on those assets in Europe as compensation.

02:51And that's the model that's being pursued.

02:54Ukraine would get the benefit of a loan, but would have to repay that if Russia pays reparations.

03:00And with that repayment of the loan, Russia would get the money back.

03:03So what we are saying is we're holding them until we see how Russia is going to step up for its responsibilities

03:10and the undoubted debts that it owes for the reconstruction of Ukraine,

03:14with the massive destruction, deliberate destruction of civilian infrastructure that we have seen.

03:19The money will always be there to give back if and when the Russians start to pay.

03:23Thank you.
