Speaking in Kyiv, Mr Blinken said Washington has the power to seize Russian assets in the US and will use them to help rebuild Ukraine.
He also said that Ukraine is getting “closer to Nato”.
Earlier, the top US diplomat told Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky that military aid is “now on its way”.
“What Putin destroyed, Russia should - must - pay to rebuild. It’s what international law demands. And it’s what the Ukrainian people deserve,” Mr Blinken said during his speech at Kyiv Polytechnic University.
“Our Congress has given us the power to seize Russian assets in the US, and we intend to use it,” he said.

It’s only fair to let them be tried in Ukraine for crimes against Ukrainians
crimes against Ukrainians
Surely this also applies to current USA administration turning Ukraine into prison that is almost impossible to escape and where men are treated worse then dogs?
The only one doing that is Russia.
So hopefully

Wow, my comment got removed because it is “misinformation / propaganda”.
You surely guys are open to a civil discussion based on facts :)Yes, based on facts.
Unfortunately nothing you say has had any.
What
What?
Ukrainian government do that.Cause they don’t know what are they doing in there. They are morrons and yeah what u said about prison for men.It’s true not only Russian doing that.Both sides getting wild and harsh.Men are kidnapped on the streets by the military registration and enlistment office.Recently applied new law which make just more corruption and war for poor.Police and special forces have protection from mobilization,so they gonna defense government from any protests against government.
I wonder what his position is on who should pay to rebuild Gaza …
I’m sure there’s any number of land developers that would love to rebuild it. After all the Palestinians are dead, of course.

Israel is already rebuilding, but for another ppl
I’ll take shit that isn’t going to happen for $1000, Alex
Yeah, but not ceding the expectation is important.
Sorry it is going to take a lot more than a grand to rebuild.
I guess usa must pay to rebuild irak, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Somalia first?
Did you miss the entire occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan? Billions were spent on rebuilding those countries, but the Taliban and Iranian backed militias destroyed a lot of it.
I noticed that you mentioned Syria, which was a civil war that no one mentions anymore. It was part of the Arab Spring and didn’t really involve the US. The only people who care about Bashar Al-Assad are his cronies in Syria, his Iranian supporters, and the Russian government (which supported him because they have a navy port in Tartus).
Are you an Iran supporter or a Russian?
They spelled Iraq with a K, it’s probably safe to assume you’re tilting at a windmill but nonetheless it’s good to oppose straight up stupidity.
I speak several languages little fella, it’s IRAK in my language. How many languages you guys from the American empire speak?? 😂😂😂
Personally, only three, but they’re not hard for English speakers to learn. Most Americans only speak English though.
When you refer to America when typing in English, do you say États-Unis or Estados Unidos?
Most of what you said is correct, but didn’t we drone strike the shit out of Syria?
And when we weren’t drone striking the shit out of them, we were giving Turkey the weapons needed to fight them on the ground, for some reason
Also nobody dares to comment on Libya
Do not believe the American propaganda media, usa did nothing just loot those countries.
To answer your question, I’m Western European 😉
The same that happened in Afghanistan would repeat in Ukraine if Russia succesfully invaded it, rebuild it, but then withdraw all military and let the pro-russian and Azov militias continue destroying the country. Actually it is already being destroyed. Peace for arabs and ukrainians.
We’re going to force them with … weak sanctions and sternly worded letters.
Right after Nato finishes the rebuild of Iraq, Libya, Yemen, Yugoslavia…
Ah yes, like we did in 1918 with Germany. That solved all future problems
Solving all future problems is not the goal of reparations. I wonder why you specifically chose WWI btw, didn’t WWII also have reparations?
After WW2 it was more like they split Germany into parts and “occupied” the remaining industry and workforce for reparations. There wasn’t much of the original Reich left that could’ve paid reparations.
WW2 was about containing the USSR. Even before Germany fell Churchill was warning about Russia. He wanted to free Eastern Europe before the Soviets got there. But the Americans cared more about glory and wanted to capture Berlin so Eastern Europe was abandoned.
Even after WW2 there was talk of invading Russia.
