The press secretary of the French Foreign Ministry, Anne-Claire Legendre, announced that France had frozen the accounts of Russian businesspeople worth 1.3 billion euros. Still, they can only be confiscated with a court order.
"Today, 1.3 billion euros belonging to Russian oligarchs were blocked in France. We cannot confiscate these funds until there is an appropriate court decision," Legendre said on the LCI TV channel.
She noted that, at the moment, it is impossible to transfer these funds to Ukraine.
