Sunak called on the West to be bolder in seizing Russian assets. Sunak: "It starts with us taking the billions in interest that these assets generate and sending them to Ukraine" The Russian leader's press secretary, Dmitry Peskov, noted that the seizure of Russian assets by other countries is illegal and fraught with serious harmful consequences.

Earlier it became known that the G7 countries intend to force Russia to compensate Ukraine for losses from frozen assets and instruct governments to develop measures to implement this step.
