LONDON, May 21 (Reuters) - U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said there was a possibility Group of Seven nations would support Ukraine by as much as $50 billion using loans linked to seized Russian assets, Sky News reported on Tuesday.
"I believe it's important for the G7 to work together to show a united front and to show that we can generate meaningful resources to support Ukraine over the next several years," she told Sky News.

This creepy troll wants to start WW3. Strap its ass to a tank.
Wait til China seizes our assets. This is a poor game to play in the modern age.
“Seizing assets is government theft and leads to confusion and unpredictability in financial markets.”
The Ukraine conflict is over my head but I wish we had a more competent team up there handling it.
” support Ukraine over the next several years”
Ha ha, there won’t be anything left of Ukraine in several years.
Why don’t they just give them the money that’s still left over from what they haven’t yet paid Iran? That money doesn’t belong to the current government of Iran. It never did. They weren’t in power when that money was paid for military equipment by the Shah of Iran. They never should have been given any of that money, especially not after attacking the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, and taking Americans hostage. That money should have been forfeited, not held, and given them as a reward by the likes of Obama and Biden.
Ukraine could be et pay a loan back.
They are uncreditworthy.
Afterwards, Russia can just claim that it bought Ukraine.
Two bad ideas combined: giving even more to the Ukraine money laundering opp AND losing international credibility by stealing Russian assets.
A loan. And they said Yellen has no sense of humor! Ha!
Megan,
It’s possible, but I have my doubts the money will be spent efficiently.
I’m now beginning to believe the entire purpose of war has become a vehicle for crooked pols to move money from our national treasury into their hands. It is essentially akin to giving them the keys to our national safe deposit box. We give it to other countries like fools and saps, while the pols tell us it is in our interest. There is no other country that deserves our tax money unless their leadership and citizenry have actually fought and died to protect USA as allies.
“”Yellen sees ‘possibility’ of $50 billion Ukraine loan from seized Russian assets””
Yellen sees another avenue to funnel / launder $$$$$ from seized Russian assets to democRATS and RINOs.
There, fixed it.
Wasn’t it this geriatric/addled fool the secy of treasury who doesn’t understand inflation? She should be in either a prison cell or in a Hospital for those Ignorant of Economics Principles.
Yellen has been wrong about everything.
How about our supposed “betters” stealing land it doesn’t own like they tried to do with the Bundy ranch?
Or the WEF talking about doing the same thing to everyone?
screw Yanet Yellen.
Let her and her family join the front lines!
“ I agree. Just seize the funds and use them to counter Russian aggression. Why bother with the pretenses?‘
