All this talk of Europe divided... of course it is "divided." It is a federal democratic continental sized union. There will always be some division. But it is striking how united it actually it is on the big issues, especially Ukraine, and how much it gets done.

The EU is getting stronger.

Regardless of what happens to the reparations loan, which is still under intense negotiations, the Russian assets will be protected from undue interference.

It's a bold decision and an act of defiance. The Europeans are finally playing their cards.
EU agrees to indefinitely immobilise €210 billion of Russian assets
The EU has decided to keep the assets of the Russian Central Bank immobilised for the foreseeable future. The ban, which is based on a provision for economic emergencies, pushes back against external attempts to release the €210 billion in assets before Ukraine is compensated.
