The most beneficial path for Ukraine is for the EU to support the confiscation of Russian assets not for reconstruction, but for compensating war victims.

The risk of returning of Russia's frozen assets seemed increasingly likely. Brussels had to urgently seek a safeguard against this scenario.

The current Ukrainian government must address: what is the specific plan for utilizing Russian assets after their confiscation?

The Finnish court's ruling will send a strong signal to companies engaged in arbitration disputes with Russia over compensation for damages caused by its aggression against Ukraine.

Confiscation of the Russian assets will be perhaps the only way to ensure compensation to victims and survivors under the international compensation mechanism.

The stance of the Global South remains a significant obstacle in the matter of confiscating the frozen assets of the Russian Central Bank.

Despite successes in the matter of frozen Russian assets, the issue of compensation for victims of Russian aggression is still unresolved.
