Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has stated that there is no unified position among Western countries regarding the confiscation of seized Russian assets. While European leaders broadly support the idea, concerns over the potential impact on the euro and the banking system have created divisions.
Tusk acknowledged that Poland has been pushing hard for the confiscation of Russian assets but admitted that its influence in the discussion is limited since it is not part of the eurozone. He emphasised that despite the general agreement on the principle of confiscation, some governments remain hesitant due to fears of financial instability.
The debate over Russian assets has intensified in recent months, with an increasing number of European Union member states backing the move. In February, European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas noted that support for the confiscation of frozen Russian assets had grown. However, a final decision has yet to be reached.
