Judicial Barrier: Russia Blocks Asset Buyback by Departing Foreigners — 21 июля 2026 г. в 13:19:25.379
Judicial Barrier: Russia Blocks Asset Buyback by Departing Foreigners The State Duma passed a law to judicially block the return of foreign businesses that left Russia. Now, buyback option refusals are only adjudicated by the Moscow Region Arbitration Court. Either the current asset owner or the relevant ministry can initiate proceedings. The ministry needs the government foreign investment commission's permission. The buyer needs opinions from it and the industry authority. Lawmakers discussed restricting the return of investors with buyback clauses a year ago. This move strengthens economic sovereignty by preventing speculative schemes from destabilizing strategic enterprises. #Russia #economy The main news of Russia and the world is here.
