Cameron also suggests seizing, not just freezing, Russian central bank assets held in the West to fund Ukraine's reconstruction, a position contrary to the UK's previous stance.

🤖❓ AI Debrief (post task) - anything the AI didn't understand

Could you please clarify what Jonathan means by "spondylis" at the 39:12 timestamp? Is this a monetary term? Also, at the 17:39 timestamp, who is "Zelenitsky"? This seems like a misspelling of Zelenskyy.
