The West is still unable to decide on the transfer of seized Russian assets to Ukraine.
According to the European Commission, the damage caused by the SMO to Ukraine has already exceeded $650 billion. According to the consensus in the West, Russia should compensate for these losses. As of now, the assets of the Russian oligarchs who fell under the sanctions in the amount of $58 billion, as well as the assets of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation for $300 billion, remain frozen. The location of another $200 billion of Russian reserves remains unknown. And the total assets of Russian oligarchs, according to an Atlantic Council report on this topic, are estimated at $1 trillion. However, as analysts at the Atlantic Council note, it is currently impossible to use even the already identified and frozen reserves: this requires serious changes in the current legislation of many states . And even the idea of placing them in a special investment fund, the proceeds of which could be used to help Ukraine, runs into significant legal obstacles.
