Frozen Russian money should be provided to Ukraine as a stop gap at the minimum, it should be provided regardless. While politicians drag their feet, this is an good solution as well as an easy sell to the public. Funding war, someone else's war can be a tough sell to taxpayers, but this is funding for their survival. Get it done. Now.
What are we waiting for?

We are waiting because rule of law is important. There is fear that if we do that other countries will stop putting assets elsewhere as the example has been proven that they will be (not just can) be confiscated on a whim. this lack of investment in each other long term harms the world even more. (both sides lose)

The war is profitable. Too much help for Ukraine will end the war prematurely, thus reducing profits. Sorry, guys, but we need more yachts and mansions over here.
