Ukraine will receive a $3 billion loan from the United Kingdom to purchase military equipment, paid for by the profits generated from frozen Russian assets.
G7 members collectively froze about $280 billion of Russian central bank assets in response to Putin's invasion of Ukraine.
The vast majority of funds are in Europe and are expected to generate about $3-5 billion in profits a year.
