Full recovery

The Guardian reports that, according to a statement from Ukraine’s Justice Ministry, it should become “the first part of a comprehensive redress mechanism … to ensure that Ukraine compensates in full for the damage caused, in accordance with international law”.

The announcement follows Prime Minister Mark Rutte’s visit to Kyiv on Friday. Justice Minister Denys Malyuska of Ukraine says it is right for the register to be located in the “capital of international law”.
