"Japan will make its contribution while controlling the use of these funds to avoid the use of funds for military purposes," the statement says.

  • On October 26, the G7 countries agreed to provide Ukraine with a $50 billion loan: it will be funded by the proceeds of the frozen assets of the Russian central bank.
