German Chancellor Merz has announced an agreement in how to fund Ukraine for the next two years. His statement:

“The financial package for Ukraine is in place: Ukraine will receive an interest-free loan of 90 billion Euros as I suggested. This sends a clear signal from Europe to Putin: This war will not be worth it. We will keep Russian assets frozen until Russia has compensated Ukraine.”
