Idk why they don’t just declare the Russian assets forfeit and straight up hand them all to Ukraine

Because then the EU loses potential leverage over Russia - whether to protect EUs own security or to push Russia into a peace deal.

It's like shooting all the hostages.

Edit:
As another comment points out, it's interest from the assets. So the assets are still intact, thus not triggering russians
