Bienvenue ! Welkom! Willkommen! 🇧🇪

Et puis, sur le fond, mon dieu 🙄
Écrire un article sur l'expatriation pour finalement avouer qu'on n'a pas envie d'apprendre la langue du pays... 🤦🏻

Ahah, too funny, you don't even understand the difference between taxes levied by a State and interests levied by a private company...
I'm living in Belgium, this matter is extensively discussed in the press since months, we are well aware on what is at stake.

That's incorrect, you are mixing everything. The Belgian State doesn't collect any interest on the frozen assets as these assets are in a private company, Euroclear. The State receives taxes from Euroclear and these taxes are used to repay the G7 loan.

Yes, and these taxes are used to repay the G7 loan, that's what I said.

The incomes on the frozen Russian assets are already used to repay a G7 loan to Ukraine!

Check before commenting! That's months that Belgium suggests solutions. But no other countries want to take the risk.
For the rest, € 2.2 billion. And 30 F16 fighters coming soon...

Yes, it's so easy to ask others to go naked at the front line while you stay sheltered, well warm. No country except Germany agrees to pool the risks of this operation. It's because they know what is at stake...

Ben il la cite clairement, aucune devinette ici... 😏

And I'm really a great supporter of Ukraine, that's not the question

You think it's so simple? You don't know the role of Euroclear in the world economy and what is at stake. Try to understand this at first, then come back to have an adult conversation...

What BS? There's Russian money in many European countries. Did you see your government asking Danish banks to loan money to Ukraine without any warranty that they will be refunded one day? Do you think that they would do that??

€ 2.2 billion. And 30 F16 fighters coming soon... Check before commenting.

All these comments from people not knowing the problem... 🙄 This money is in a private company, Belgium government can't push them to loan this money without warranties. And it's easy for other countries to push for this, and leaving Belgium facing alone the potential consequences in the future.
