1/4: 📢 Significant Development in Sanctions Disputes
One of the first investment treaty arbitrations related to EU sanctions on Russian assets post-Ukraine invasion is now underway. #Sanctions #InvestmentArbitration
Breaking: Russian businessman lodges first known treaty arbitration against Luxembourg, - iareporter.com/articles/brea…
3/4: Whether the argument will succeed remains uncertain, especially in light of subsequent case law (see Sharmin's recent chapter on this: link.springer.com/chapter/10…)
4/4: If successful, the case might set a precedent for further challenges to EU sanctions on Russian assets, including those managed by Euroclear. More thoughts on this here: ejiltalk.org/immobilised-ass…

As Western states' support for aid to Ukraine falters, @FranchiniDaniel & @astridiversen dissect the proposal to collateralize frozen Russian assets to offer Ukraine short-term liquidity while avoiding the complex legal questions associated w/ confiscation lawfaremedia.org/article/fro…

Replying to @FranchiniDaniel @lawfare
Excellent work! Certainly agree there is no straightforward option (and also would prefer whatever the political will can be found for than anything else )
Frozen Russian assets could help fund Ukraine, but the legality of confiscating them is debated. Can the G7 use them as collateral for a loan instead?
@astridiversen & I explore potential options & their legal implications in our new piece for @lawfare: lawfaremedia.org/article/fro…

All collateralization options involve risks & potential legal challenges. The G7 must navigate these to support Ukraine & uphold international law #FrozenAssets #CentralBank #InternationalLaw #Ukraine #Russia #FinancialSanctions
Thanks to the editors @lawfare for their fantastic assistance!
