“We are talking intensively about the 19th sanctions package. I don't expect a decision today, but I think we are on the right track to make this decision this week at the European Union summit.” – said Deputy Minister Niemczycki before the meeting of foreign ministers of EU countries in Luxembourg.
“We are also making clear progress when it comes to the so-called reparations loan for Ukraine. We support this solution. It is obvious that Ukraine's ability to counteract Russia's aggression depends on Ukraine's financial situation,” he added.
This is a loan to be granted to Ukraine from the frozen assets of the Russian central bank.
“We managed to find a solution that seems to satisfy, on the one hand, the need of some euro zone countries not to violate the rules. On the other hand, we will be able to provide money for Ukraine.” – also emphasized the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs.
– I would like this discussion to move from a moment of discussion to action as quickly as possible, but I think that calm is also advisable here – Ignacy Niemczycki also noted.
