There are new laws on collaborators and Russian business in Ukraine, but lists are still being formed: the legislator explained to whom to prepare for the confiscation of property ,
KYIV. UkraineGate ,30 , April , 2022 | Ukraine News .
In early March, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine passed Law №2116-IX, which allows for the seizure of property from Russians in favor of Ukraine, and at the same time, lists of collaborators are already being formed. According to the co-chair of the Voice faction and co-author of the document Yulia Klymenko, the list of collaborators and confiscation of property, according to the law, are two parallel processes, ie a person can be a collaborator and not have property .
Quote
“Collaborators are one law and property is another. According to this law, the Cabinet of Ministers had to compile lists of property of individuals and legal entities to which this property belongs and submit it to the National Security and Defense Council for approval. After the National Security and Defense Council makes a decision, the President approves it by decree, and then the process of confiscation of property begins.
However, so far, I will tell you honestly, I have not seen any list or any approved decision. Maybe it was some kind of secret, but in my eyes it did not come across. I made a request to the deputies and as soon as I have the information, I will share it, ”Klymenko said.
At the same time, in her opinion, this mechanism should already be launched, because Ukraine is at war, and Russian business and collaborators are still working for the aggressor.
“There is a mechanism, but no one is implementing it. And this is a big question, including political, why it is not done. Because now is the time to do it. We spend a lot of money every day on the war, and it is not fair when Russian property continues to work here, “Klymenko said.
To the topic
While the mechanisms for implementing the laws on collaborators and Russian business in Ukraine are being worked out, Russian business continues to operate in our country. For example , companies affiliated with Russian-controlled fugitive ex-MP Ruslan Tarpan still operate in Odessa.
According to the registers, the Grand Hotel, Compass Project and Kvartal Russova companies have a beneficiary and a participant with a passport of the aggressor country. “War by war, and Russian business – on schedule: how do the companies wanted by Ruslan Tarpan.”
The founder of the above-mentioned LLC is Ramil Shaidullin. As it turned out, he has Russian citizenship.
And Ruslan Tarpan himself has been hiding from Ukrainian law enforcement officers since 2017 due to machinations with the state budget. In 2021, he was declared internationally wanted and remanded in custody in absentia. Currently, Tarpan is the main suspect in the case of embezzlement of state funds during the construction of the environmental project “Deepwater Release”.
The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine has currently started preparing parliamentary appeals on the state of investigation of the Tarpan case.
Moreover, experts and deputies believe that he should be included in the list of collaborators, because “he has long been working for Russia’s interests.”
