"Ukraine and 34 other nations have agreed to set up a compensation body for war damages caused by Russia's invasion. The decision was announced today in The Hague, where President Volodymyr Zelenskyy urged strong international backing so victims can be compensated. The Council of Europe will oversee the International Claims Commission, allowing Ukrainians to file claims for losses since February 2022."
""We are sending a very clear message from here in The Hague. That after peace is achieved, justice must be allowed to take its course," Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof said. But how to make Russia pay remains unclear. The aggressor must pay, Zelenskyy told the Netherlands parliament earlier. The commission's establishment follows the setting up of a so-called "Register of Damages," which has already received more than 80,000 claims for reparations from individuals or organizations."
