The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe has proposed a legal mechanism to transfer frozen Russian assets to Ukraine, leveraging decisions of the European Court of Human Rights. This marks a novel approach to asset transfer, potentially setting a precedent for using ECHR rulings as a basis for reparations. The proposal's feasibility and implementation remain uncertain, but it could significantly impact international legal and financial norms.
