But not only Ukraine claims the confiscated and frozen assets of the Russian Federation
Ukraine expects to receive part of Russia 's frozen and confiscated assets for post-war reconstruction . Oleg Ustenko , the president's adviser on economic issues, believes that it could be $ 400-500 billion.
“Now we can talk about the amount that Ukraine can receive, between 400 and 500 billion dollars, that is, we are talking about 2-2.5 of our annual gross domestic product. But all the same it will not be enough, therefore search of additional means constantly proceeds », – Ustenko told during a telethon.
Many investors have confirmed that they will come to Ukraine, but it is worth counting on contributions and reparations from Russia, he said.
Ustenko clarified that this amount includes the assets of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation frozen in the West in the amount of $ 300 billion. Another $ 100 billion can be obtained from the frozen assets of the close circle of Russian dictator Vladimir Putin .
These funds will be combined into a material fund and debt obligations will be issued under them. In addition, revenues are expected from international partners and international institutions.
But these funds will not be enough for full recovery – today Ukraine's losses from Russian aggression are estimated at 1 trillion dollars.
