That's kind of mixed news. Seized Russian assets were supposed to fund Ukrainian reconstruction. It's sort of robbing future-Ukraine to pay present day-Ukraine. Overall though, still way better than no weapons, obviously.
Gotta have a present day Ukraine to have a future Ukraine.
100%! It's definitely a great thing given the current circumstances.
Which isn't as good as them giving it directly, since Ukraine was already receiving the interest from these assets.
