Lithuania Will Place Ukrainian Refugees in Premises Belonging to the Russians/Belarusians 

The state has launched a legal process to seize the property of Russians and Belarusians to transfer it to the temporary disposal of refugees from Ukraine

According to LSM, Latvia began to look for ways to seize real estate located on the territory of Latvia from citizens of Russia and Belarus. In particular, we are talking about the sanatoriums Dzintarkrasts and Belarus in Jurmala.

"It is clear that it is in the interests of all European countries to ensure that the property of the Russian state and Russian oligarchs is not located on the territory of the European Union. Now we have found support in other EU countries because they have similar problems," Andris Vitols.

We remind you that Ukraine has resumed the process of returning real estate in the territory of the United Kingdom, which Russia illegally appropriated to itself after the collapse of the USSR.
