英国和加拿大加入欧盟计划，使用冻结资产提供贷款。英国冻结了超过250亿英镑俄罗斯资产，加拿大 也有部分。计划是政治协议在布鲁塞尔会议达成，但10月23日未能实现。欧盟旨在不直接没收资产，避 免法律挑战。 俄罗斯和乌克兰冲突持续三年多，西方国家冻结了俄罗斯央行大约3000亿美元资产，主要存放在欧洲金 融机构里。这笔钱从2022年2月俄罗斯军事行动开始就被冻结，目的是限制莫斯科的资金来源。欧盟持 有其中大部分，大约2100亿欧元，主要是政府债券形式。美国持有大约50亿美元，日本也有一部分。冻 结行动由七国集团协调，目的是直到俄罗斯赔偿乌克兰损失才考虑解冻。 欧盟领导人10月23日在布鲁塞尔峰会讨论使用这些冻结资产为乌克兰提供1400亿欧元贷款。提案是把资 产作为担保，不直接没收，而是用产生的收益偿还贷款。贷款用于乌克兰购买武器和经济支持。欧盟委 员会主席乌尔苏拉·冯德莱恩推动这个计划，强调这是为了减轻欧洲纳税人负担。峰会结论显示，领导 人同意探索选项，但没有立即批准，决定推迟到12月。 比利时持有大部分资产，在布鲁塞尔金融清算机构Euroclear。比利时政府担心法律风险，因为如果随意 使用资产，可能面临国际诉讼 ...

乌克兰近月遭俄军猛烈空袭后，未来两年550亿欧元的预算缺口已迫在眉睫，比利时死死卡住关键，作 为冻结资产的主要持有国，它坚持要 "法律约束力文本" 才肯松口。 欧洲央行也反复警告 "可能冲击欧元信誉"。连美国都对 "动资产本金" 讳莫如深。 辩论的 "慢节奏" 作为被冻结俄罗斯央行资产的主要持有国，比利时的顾虑并非空穴来风。 其境内的欧洲清算所（Euroclear）保管着这笔1400亿欧元资金，而该机构作为欧洲最大的跨境清算平 台，连接着全球数万亿欧元的资产交易。 本周四，欧盟领导人将在布鲁塞尔召开关键会议，议题直指那笔牵动全局的1400亿欧元，用被冻结的俄 罗斯资产为乌克兰提供 "赔偿贷款"。 但比利时、卢森堡及欧央行的担忧同样不容忽视，欧央行行长拉加德虽表态支持 "公平使用" 资产，但 强调必须是 "操作性贷款"。 作为全球第二大储备货币，欧元的稳定性依赖于欧盟对国际法的遵守，若因乌克兰贷款计划被贴上 "违 法" 标签，可能引发各国央行减持欧元储备，冲击欧元区金融根基。 不过也有外交官指出，比利时的 "强硬要求" 或为谈判策略，过往欧盟在难民危机资金分摊、疫情复苏 基金等争议中，均通过折中方案达成共识。 ...
