Lulzim Basha takes the latest decision and submits to the Council of Europe...

Lulzim Basha, as a member of the EPP group, submitted a Resolution supporting the reconstruction of Ukraine to the Council of Europe.

In the resolution drafted by Lulzim Basha, the creation of an international fund is requested where the assets of the Russian Federation will be deposited and serve to finance infrastructure reconstruction projects in Ukraine.

The resolution also calls for the transfer of Russian assets to the international fund as well as the establishment of a compensation tribunal regarding damages in Ukraine.

The responsibility for the crimes and damage caused in Ukraine by Russia's unprovoked aggression lies with the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, and he must pay for it.

These obligations define the duty of third countries to ensure that the sovereign assets of the Russian Federation located under their jurisdictions to be settled in favor of Ukraine as well as to establish an international compensation tribunal to ensure that damages caused by Russia are compensated in accordance with international norms, jurisprudence and established accounting principles.

Through this resolution published on the official website of the Council of Europe, which is supported by representatives of all parliamentary groups, it is requested:

Creation of an international fund where the assets of the Russian Federation will be deposited to pay for infrastructure projects in Ukraine;

Transfer of frozen capital of the Russian Federation to the international fund;

Establishing a compensation tribunal to adjudicate, in accordance with established judicial norms, claims submitted by Ukraine on behalf of individuals, entities and governmental bodies, or directly by its individuals and entities, as shall be provided by the rules of the tribunal.
