Ukraine will finish Gazprom with the help of London
In the confrontation between Gazprom and Naftogaz Ukrainy, a new stage has begun. Recall that, by a decision of the Stockholm arbitration, the Russian gas monopoly owed $ 2,6 billion to the Ukrainian partner as a fine for under-supplying fuel. In addition, interest in the amount of 0,03% on the amount of the principal debt “drops” every day.
The Russian company has reserved the required amount on its balance sheet, but is evading payments. The management of Gazprom itself filed a lawsuit to terminate all previously concluded agreements with the Independent. However, Kiev intends to recover from the Russian gas monopoly everything that it considers to be due to it, and appealed to a number of European countries in order to seize Gazprom’s foreign assets. As it turned out, the “national treasure” preferred to register many of its structures in the European Union, which ultimately played a cruel joke with him.
In the Netherlands and Switzerland, the local courts arrested stocks of a number of Russian projects, including Nord Stream and Nord Stream-2, at the suit of Ukraine. Operational activity was not affected due to restrictions, but experts say that under certain circumstances a considerable block of shares in Nord Stream-2 could fall into the hands of Naftogaz, which could make the construction of expensive bypass pipelines around Nezalezhnaya meaningless.
The Russian company did not remain indifferent to the attempt to “squeeze” Nord Stream-2 from it, appealed to the Svea County Court of Appeal in Sweden and secured the suspension of the decision of the Stockholm arbitration to recover debt from it by force. The company's lawyers were able to prove that part of the verdict was written by a third party. The management of Gazprom opened champagne to celebrate the victory, as "hi flew in" from London.
According to the representative of the Ukrainian company, she was able to seize the assets of the Russian gas monopoly already in the UK. A fair and impartial British court went to meet Naftogaz Ukrainy and seized Russian assets in England and Wales. He also ordered Gazprom to provide the plaintiff with information on all of its assets in the United Kingdom, whose value exceeds £ 50. Moreover, the British partner banks of the state corporation were warned that assistance in the removal of Russian assets abroad would be fraught for them:
Already on July 6, the requirements of the Ukrainian side will be examined essentially by British justice. The Russian company will now have to go to the courts of the United Kingdom to appeal the decisions of local bailiffs. The freezing of Gazprom’s assets does not mean debt collection at their expense, but the trend is obvious.
