"Important Component": Ukraine will require reparations from the Russian Federation in the Hague - Ambassador

At a briefing in the Hague, Ambassador Anton Korinevich noted that the amount of claims has not yet been determined, but the decision to make financial requirements has been made. The authorities of Ukraine decided that it would demand from the Russian Federation compensation for damages in the framework of the trial on the Convention on the Prohibition of Genocide, but the amount of financial claims has not yet been determined.

About it reports "European Pravda" with reference to the statement of the agent of Kiev in the process, the ambassador Anton Korinevich at a briefing in the Hague. Corinevich noted that Ukraine, speaking in Hague, consciously mentions its financial losses. "Reparations will be an important component of our case. We emphasized this court - I, as an agent of Ukraine and other representatives of the legal team who participated in the Hague process, spoke about it," he said.

Corinevich cited data from the World Bank, which estimated that as of the summer of 2023 to restore the losses caused by Russia to Ukraine would need $ 411 billion. At a briefing, the ambassador also noted that the decision on the amount of claims has not yet been made. "We will resolve issues concerning the amount and other specifics [claims of Ukraine to the Russian Federation]," Korinevich explained.
