Ukraine opposes compensating Western investors from frozen Russian assets – Mudra
The Ukrainian government does not support the decision of the international depository Euroclear, which plans to redistribute about EUR 3 B of frozen Russian funds among Western investors whose money was seized by Russia.
This was stated by the deputy head of the President's Office, Iryna Mudra.
“If private investors receive compensation earlier than the victims of the war, it will not be fair. This creates the impression of inconsistency, of Europe's retreat from its determination,” Mudra said.
According to her, international law requires the aggressor to fully compensate the victim, not investors who have entered a high-risk jurisdiction.
