The European Union plans to adopt a directive in October that will allow the confiscation of Russian assets frozen as a result of EU sanctions. This was announced by European Commissioner for Justice Didier Reynders at a press conference in Prague, writes European Truth..
" Therefore, after the summer break, we will approve it in the Rada, and, as I said, I will present the directive and relevant legislation in October. So we're moving really fast,"
According to the European Commissioner, this legislative act will expand the list of crimes at the EU level.
Earlier, the head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, said that Brussels was preparing a legal framework for the transfer of frozen Russian assets, including the property of oligarchs, for the restoration of Ukraine after the end of hostilities..
