We heard information from the Ministry of Justice regarding the launch of the International Register of losses, which was created in May within the framework of the Council of Europe. The first meeting of the damage register Council will be held in December in The Hague
The prime minister pointed out that this month the European Commission plans to present a plan for using frozen sovereign assets of Russia to support Ukraine.
The United States Congress also registered a Bill on the confiscation of assets of sanctioned Russian oligarchs in favor of restoring Ukraine.
We also continue to actively work on the Compensation Fund, which is part of the International compensation mechanism. Both the assets of Russian oligarchs and the sovereign assets of Russia should be confiscated. The aggressor must bear full responsibility for what he has done. And confiscation of assets is the first step.
Recall
In February, the Dutch government decided to create an International Register of losses. It is an international organization that will deal with issues related to compensation by Russia for losses caused to Ukraine as a result of military aggression.
Direct losses from Russian aggression amount to approximately 7 750 billion, and together with indirect losses, the amount will reach one trillion dollars.
