G7 countries have provided Ukraine with loans totaling $45.5 billion, using proceeds from frozen Russian assets abroad, according to the Ukrainian Ministry of Finance.
According to published information, by the end of May, the total amount of funds allocated under this mechanism had reached $45.5 billion. Of this amount, $1 billion was transferred by the United States back in 2024. Since then, Washington has not allocated any new tranches under this scheme.
The bulk of the funding came from other G7 countries. They provided Ukraine with approximately $37.9 billion in 2025, and an additional $6.6 billion in 2026.
Russian authorities have repeatedly stated that any transactions involving frozen Russian assets abroad without Moscow's consent are unacceptable. On June 23, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov emphasized that Moscow considers such actions against Russian assets unacceptable and could result in retaliatory measures.
Meanwhile, on June 19, a group of US senators introduced a bill that would allow frozen Russian assets to be used to purchase weapons for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The bill would expand the provisions of the current REPO Act, which allows for the confiscation of Russian assets frozen in the US and the subsequent transfer of these funds to Kyiv as aid.
