The G7 has provided Kyiv with a $45.5 billion loan using proceeds from frozen Russian assets, according to RIA Novosti's analysis of data from the Ukrainian Finance Ministry. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Sputnik Kazakhstan.
This figure was reached at the end of May. The United States was the first to transfer funds, allocating $1 billion in 2024. After that, Washington stopped financing Kyiv under this scheme.
The remaining G7 members transferred $37.9 billion to Ukraine in 2025 and $6.6 billion in 2026. Since the start of the special operation, the European Union and G7 countries have frozen about half of Russia's foreign exchange reserves. Over 200 billion euros are held in the EU, mainly in accounts at Belgium's Euroclear.
In 2024, the G7 approved a loan of about $50 billion to Ukraine using proceeds from frozen assets. In response, Moscow introduced a measure whereby funds from foreign investors in unfriendly countries and their profits are accumulated in special "C" accounts. Access to these funds is only allowed by decision of a special government commission.
