“On June 19, the Dutch Supreme Court, relying on the opinion of the Netherlands prosecutor’s office, accepted the appeal of Russia for consideration,” RIA Novosti reports.

As noted, in it the Russian side demands to cancel the decision of the Hague Court of Appeal of February 18.

Earlier, Russia appealed the decision to pay $ 57 billion to former Yukos shareholders.

In February, the Hague court overturned the decision of the district court, which, in turn, overturned the decision to recover money from Russia in the Yukos case.

Russian lawyers pointed out that those who claimed compensation in this case had previously won at the stages of lawsuits and arbitration, but later these decisions were quashed by the state court.

The Russian Foreign Ministry called the court decision a politically engaged act.
