What to do with frozen Russian assets

In this episode of The Sound of Economics, Rebecca Christie
invites MEP Johan Van Overtveldt and Bruegel Senior fellow
Nicolas Véron to talk about the impact of the sanctions on
Russian assets in the global financial system and what that means
in terms of systemic risk for Belgium, for Europe and for the
world. They discuss possible avenues where the EU could utilise
200 billion frozen Russian assets, in particular a recently
proposed plan to use the assets as collateral and take out a loan
to help fund Ukraine.
