MOSCOW, May 30. /TASS/. Euroclear has filed a complaint with the Moscow Arbitration Court against the immediate enforcement of a ruling to recover 18.2 trillion rubles ($256 bln) under a lawsuit by the Central Bank, a source familiar with the proceedings told TASS.

According to the source, the complaint against the immediate enforcement of the ruling to recover funds under the Bank of Russia lawsuit was filed this week.

About the case

In December 2025, the Bank of Russia filed a lawsuit against Euroclear in the Moscow Arbitration Court for 18.2 trillion rubles ($256 bln), amid the European Union's plans to use frozen Russian assets to finance Ukraine. This amount includes frozen funds, the value of blocked securities, and lost profits. At the request of the Central Bank, the court closed the proceedings on the regulator's lawsuit against the Belgian depository to the public.

The Bank of Russia stated that the procedure for enforcing the court ruling using the defendant's assets, including those located in foreign jurisdictions - both friendly and unfriendly - will be determined after the court's decision enters into force.
