Russia will pay for Ukraine's restoration: how will the aggressor assets be selected (video)

The first assets to be given to Ukraine's post -war reconstruction may be the money of one of the Russian oligarchs who arrested in the United States. Ukraine and international partners have already developed a mechanism for compensation for losses caused by Russia during a full -scale war against our country. On July 9, the Minister of Justice Denis Masus said this on the air of the telephone on July 9.

According to him, the question of what the mechanism of compensation for losses should be was discussed by the G7 Justice Ministers at a recent meeting held in the capital of Japan Tokyo. "We have international colleagues with a complete understanding of the common goal and understanding what it should look like," the Minister of Justice said. As M. explained, the process itself will consist of three components.

The first is going on now, as a register of losses has been created, which stores photos and video evidence of Russian crimes in Ukraine. There is also witness testimony and so on. There is also an international loss register, which includes 40 countries, but it is not valid yet. Its launch should take place by the end of 2023, and this register will include information from the Ukrainian Register. The second component - the compensation commission must work.

All compensation requirements will be sent here. The commission, after studying all the data, will decide on the amount of compensation that the Russian Federation has to pay. "Discussions and discussions are ongoing here, but there is an understanding too. We hope that decisions and discussions will end by the end of summer - early autumn of 2023," Denis Masuska said. The third component is funding that will depend on losses.

It is planned that all arrested funds and nationalized assets of the Russian Federation abroad will fall into the so -called compensation funds. Negotiations are still underway between the US and Ukraine to transfer the recently confiscated assets of one of the oligarchs of Russia. "But this amount is relatively small with what damage is caused.

The war with Russia is still ongoing, but in Ukraine already calculate the amount of losses, and also calculate how much post -war restoration of the country will cost. Yes, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in early May that Ukraine needs about $ 400 billion.

According to the President, the Russian invaders have already been destroyed during the invasion of Ukraine: in the meantime, in Germany, it is believed that the use of frozen Russian funds to restore Ukraine is too difficult, and they interfere with financial and legal issues.
