PoliticsEurope shuts the U.S. out of talks on Russian assets

Several EU leaders firmly rejected transferring about 200 billion euros in immobilized Russian assets held in the bloc to U.S. control as a bargaining chip in peace talks. Finnish Prime Minister Petteri Orpo called releasing the assets completely out of the question, while leaders said Europe would keep exploring ways to use them to support Ukraine.
