On December 19, local time, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Zakharova commented on the results of the EU summit, saying that while approving new loans to Ukraine, the EU made a decision to prolong the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. She stressed that the EU is still trying to find “pseudo-legal” excuses to seize Russian assets. The final outcome document of the Brussels Conference clearly stipulates that the EU has the right to use frozen Russian reserves to reimburse loans provided to Ukraine, which once again demonstrates its “legal nihilism.”
