< p >The publication notes that in the future, assets may be confiscated if Moscow refuses to compensate for the damage. We are talking about frozen assets of the Central Bank of Russia, with the help of which the EU wants to ensure stable support for Ukraine, especially in the light of the fact that the United States can reduce its assistance to Kyiv. According to sources, the value of confiscated assets will be compensated by Russia's obligations to compensate for damage under a potential peace agreement.
< p > EU, the Big Seven countries and Australia froze about $ 280 billion of Russian assets that are located in these countries in the form of securities and currency. The sanctions imposed on individual Russians froze additionally assets worth almost $ 58 billion, including houses, yachts and private aircraft. < p > head of the Ministry of Economy and Finance of the European Union Valdis Dombrovskis and Maria Luis Albuquerque said that the EU should study all possible options for assistance to Ukraine, including confiscation of the assets of the Russian Central Bank. < p >Another discussed option assumes that the EU will oblige the member state to confiscate sovereign assets as compensation for the destruction of the energy infrastructure of Ukraine. But while experts are studying whether the decision of the International Criminal Court on this issue and the cruelty of attacks will justify confiscation in accordance with the criminal legislation of the EU member states. proposals for complete confiscation of assets were rejected by several EU members, including Germany and France. The European Central Bank also expressed concern about this idea. Their representatives said that such a step would entail not only legal and economic consequences, but also have a “dramatic influence” on the international role of the European currency. < p > proposal for the confiscation of Russian assets are complicated by the fact that the “large seven” has already used the profit made from them to finance a loan of 50 billion dollars for Ukraine. < p > < p > Brussels informed the EU to the EU this week that negotiations on the creation of the International Commission on Claims will begin on March 24. Its task will be to evaluate the claims for damages and determine the exact amount to be paid.< p > “there can be no justice without compensation. Russia must answer for its aggression, and it must pay,” said the European Commission President Ursula von Lyain. Recall that Russia may agree to give assets in the amount of 300 billion dollars frozen in Europe to restore Ukraine. But at the same time, the aggressor state will insist that part of the money is spent on Ukrainian territories occupied by Russia.
