Seizure of Russian assets in Ukraine: in search of balance

As of now, it makes no sense to calculate the exact cost of damages inflicted by the aggression of the Russian Federation: every day brings millions, and sometimes even dozens of millions of dollars in material damages, along with non-material losses that cannot yet be accurately measured. It also makes no sense to rely on voluntary compensation from the Russian Federation. Therefore, under these circumstances, the only realistic source of funding to compensate Ukraine for the damage caused by aggression is frozen Russian assets. Over the last year and a half, the subject of their confiscation has been widely discussed, but progress has been more than modest.
