Ukraine will represent the UN project of the resolution to force the Russian Federation to compensate for damages - the media

According to the newspaper, the project of the document provides for the beginning of negotiations on the creation of a register of requirements for compensation of Russia's losses caused by its invasion of Ukraine. If the UN approves the project, it will start discussing reparations and how to force the Russian Federation to pay them. However, diplomats emphasize that payments will not begin soon.

The chairman of the 77th session of the UN General Assembly, Caba Kereshi, explained to reporters that he first had to go through a long political, legal and economic process. He is also convinced that the project will cause hot disputes in the General Assembly. However, even after the resolution is approved, a certain legal framework, the political will of many countries and funding will be required to make payments.

"There should be a lot of work to gather a huge register of claims and make sure that all claims are legitimate. And we are still at the stage when the resolution is on the approach, but as far as I understand, it does not describe the whole process. Launch the process, "Kheresha said. Sources at the UN told reporters that the project will be presented by the General Assembly for the next weeks.

After its adoption, the parliaments of the countries in which the assets of the Russian Federation are arrested will be able to start discussions on how to pay reparations legally. Earlier, the Prime Minister of Ukraine Denis Shmigal stated that Ukraine suffered hundreds of billion losses from the war. At the same time, Russia has lost the opportunity to dispose of about $ 500 billion. This money has frozen Western countries after the February invasion of the Russian army.

The prime minister is convinced that they need to be referred to the country's restoration because the Russians have to pay. And not Ukraine or its partners. At the end of October, it became known that the European parliamentarians presented the mechanism of receiving reparations from Russia for the losses suffered by Ukraine during the war.
