BUDAPEST (Reuters) -The EU executive’s idea to use the cash balances associated with Russian assets frozen in Europe to provide a loan to Ukraine has risks and it is important that these legal risks are not spread on member states, Hungary’s EU minister said on Thursday.
“It is not clear to me how this is possible without the Commission touching the Russian assets themselves, the Commission president did not provide details on this,” Janos Boka told a briefing. “The most important is…that this should meet all legal requirements.”
