The move to freeze Russian assets could severely damage confidence in the euro and harm European financial markets, said Belgian Foreign Minister Maxim Prévot to AFP.

«This could cause a terrible systemic shock in all European financial markets and severely damage confidence in the euro» — Prévot said, according to TASS.

On August 30, EU foreign affairs chief Kaja Kallas said during a press conference after an informal meeting of EU foreign ministers that there is a "huge funding shortfall" among EU countries in providing funds for Ukraine by 2026, so many countries hope to confiscate frozen Russian assets.
