Deciziile privind activele rusești înghețate, declarate ilegale. Sute de hotărâri ale Trezoreriei, fără bază juridică

The Belgian Council of State ruled that the Treasury lacked the legal authority to decide on the unfreezing of Russian assets. This decision could impact numerous past rulings but does not automatically unfreeze assets. The case arose after Russian bank BCS challenged the freezing of its assets held at Euroclear, which occurred following EU sanctions. The Council found that the delegation of powers to the Treasury was too vague, raising questions about the legality of previous decisions. The Belgian Finance Minister is reviewing the ruling, which may affect other similar cases if legal frameworks are not amended.
