In the future, $300 billion blocked in Central Bank accounts around the world may be subject to confiscation.
Nabiullina knew about Putin’s plans to attack Ukraine/ wikimedia.orgThe Ukrainian side has gathered evidence that shows that the Central Bank of the Russian Federation contributed to the preparation of the war against Ukraine and continues to support it.In particular, the SBU found out that the head of the bank, Elvira Nabiullina, knew about Putin’s plans to attack Ukraine, and passed the decisions of the Central Bank, which ensured a full-scale invasion.
“For this, according to the investigation, Nabiullina changed the Central Bank’s work strategy to support the occupation, avoid sanctions applied to the Russian Federation for invading Ukraine, as well as to facilitate the financing of the occupation groups of the aggressor country,” the report says.
In addition, the investigation materials show that the money in the Central Bank accounts opened in other countries is one of the tools of the war. We are talking about almost $300 billion, which were blocked thanks to Ukraine’s international partners.
“In the future, this sum may be subject to confiscation, as the funds of a legal entity, to which criminal-legal measures will be applied, as provided for by legislation,” the SBU noted.
So, currently, within the framework of the relevant criminal proceedings, Nabiullina received a new suspicion under Part 2 of Art. 437 of the Criminal Code (“planning, preparation, unleashing and waging an aggressive war”). The pre-trial investigation is ongoing.
The case against Nabiullina in UkraineIn 2023, law enforcement officers informed Nabiullinia of suspicion due to the implementation of the “ruble zone” in the occupied territory of Ukraine. It was she who gave the instruction to open “branches” of the Kremlin-controlled “Promsvyazbank” on the basis of seized branches of Ukrainian banks. She also helped the local occupation administrations block the circulation of the hryvnia.
