The Central Bank of Russia demanded compensation of 230 billion from the Belgian Euroclear
The Central Bank of Russia has filed a lawsuit for the recovery of 18.2 trillion rubles ($229.36 billion) against the Belgian depository Euroclear, reports Reuters citing a message from the Moscow court.
Most of the assets that were frozen by the European Union after the start of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict are held in Euroclear. The lawsuit is a response to the EU's plans to use the frozen assets to provide financial assistance to Ukraine.
