  • Kremlin Linked Properties

    • Reference: 2024/0914
    • Question by: Hina Bokhari
    • Meeting date: 15 March 2024
    You recently stated that if the £1.1bn of property identified by Transparency International in 2022 as being bought by Russians accused of corruption or with links to the Kremlin could be sold, this would provide sufficient funding for over 4,000 low-cost homes. Should this happen and the assets were to be seized, wouldn’t a better use of the funds be to direct them straight to the Ukrainian war effort or towards the rebuilding of Ukraine?
