The European Union (<a href="https://european-union.europa.eu/index_en">EU</a>) is set to provide Ukraine with 1.4 billion euros ($1.52 billion) in military aid, sourced from the interest on frozen Russian assets.&nbsp; 
This decision, announced by EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell during a Council on Foreign Affairs meeting, will see the first transfer of funds in early August.&nbsp; 
The aid will be used to purchase essential military equipment, including air defense systems and artillery ammunition, and support Ukraine’s defense industry.&nbsp; 
The Kremlin condemned the EU’s plan as “theft” and threatened legal action.&nbsp; 
Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova warned of potential economic and political retaliatory measures, including the confiscation of Western assets in Russia.&nbsp; 
Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the U.S. and its allies blocked $300 billion in Russian assets.
