Belgium blocks and freezes 249 billion euros from Russia: “By far the largest amount of all European countries”

Belgium has blocked EUR 191 billion in Russian financial transactions and frozen EUR 58 billion in assets since the start of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. In total, Russia will therefore be punished for 249 billion euros. “That is by far the largest amount of all European countries,” Prime Minister Alexander De Croo announced in the Chamber.
