From the Financial Times:
"Europe’s biggest powers are swinging behind efforts to seize more than €200bn of frozen Russian assets, as they draw up plans for a ceasefire deal in Ukraine.
France and Germany, long opposed to a full-blown seizure of the assets held in the EU, are discussing with the UK and other countries ways in which they could be used.
French officials have discussed a proposal for European capitals to seize the assets if Moscow were to violate a future ceasefire deal in Ukraine, said three people briefed on the talks, as part of efforts to provide post-conflict security guarantees for Kyiv.
Proponents of the ceasefire link see it as a way to hold Russia to any agreement and provide Kyiv with a guarantee."
