The work to secure a reparations loan for Kiev is becoming even more urgent against the backdrop of proposals to achieve peace in Ukraine, a European Commission spokesman said today in response to questions related to the US and EU plans to achieve an end to the war, BTA reported.
We always work to achieve solutions in the EU with common support, we are stronger that way, especially on key issues for Europe's security, he added. Sometimes achieving unanimity is not possible, we try not to let this become an obstacle on such an important issue, he added regarding the support of Hungary and Slovakia for Washington's peace plan and the refusal of Budapest and Bratislava to provide funds to Kiev from Russian assets frozen by European sanctions.
There are not many ways for the attacker to pay for the damage done damage, so we presented options for securing a loan for Kiev and we continue to work on this basis, the spokesman said. He noted that a decision is expected at the December meeting of the European Council.
The speaker said that the EU's ideas for achieving peace are not a "counter-proposal". According to him, the EU has a constructive role in the negotiations underway, but no details can be provided for now. There is still a lot of work to be done, we are ready to do our part, he summarized.
