> Volodymyr Zelensky told reporters that Russia could try to recover some frozen assets through Ukraine’s partners, without identifying any countries. He said the assets are currently under Europe’s control and safe for now. EU leaders rejected a proposal to transfer them to the U.S., while the bloc has made little progress on their future use.
