Russia has been demanded to pay the debts of the Russian Empire amounting to 225 billion dollars

The American investment fund Noble Capital RSD filed a lawsuit in the federal court of the USA for the recovery of Russia's obligations on the bonds of the Russian Empire, referring to RBC

.The American investment fund Noble Capital RSD filed a lawsuit for 225 billion dollars in the federal court of the USA against the Russian Federation, the Russian Ministry of Finance, the Central Bank, and the National Wealth Fund.

It is reported that the fund demands to recognize Russia's obligations on the bonds of the Russian Empire, issued in 1916. The plaintiff insists that the debt on the papers can be settled using Russia's sovereign assets, blocked due to sanctions after 2014 and 2022.

The RBC editorial office surveyed lawyers, who stated that the real chances of Noble Capital recovering 225.8 billion dollars from Russia are extremely low. However, in their opinion, the goal may be to attempt to direct the US authorities towards a private legal alternative for using frozen Russian assets instead of political confiscation for the benefit of Ukraine.
