Europe to Launch International Claims Commission for Ukraine

What Happened?

From the Hague this week, European leaders announced they will be forming an international claims commission to allow those affected by the war in Ukraine to file claims for damages. To pay for those damages, European leaders proposed using frozen Russian assets, which are under the control of the European Union. Dutch Foreign Minister David van Weel said, ‘it’s a big step today that we are establishing a claims commission. We’re signing a treaty on that.’

The new claims commission will incorporate the already existing register of damage, and to date, more than eighty thousand claims have been submitted by individuals and organizations in Ukraine.

Why it Matters

The international claims commission could become an important legal mechanism for holding Russia accountable for the destruction of property it has caused following its invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Russian military forces have relied on mass artillery fire and unguided munitions dropped from aircraft, resulting in extensive damage to Ukrainian cities and infrastructure. Ukrainian infrastructure has been intentionally targeted by Russia, including the power grid and road system.

Big Tech Spends Billions on AI. You Can Still Get In Early.

Meta, Google, and Microsoft just reported record profits — and record AI infrastructure spending.

- Meta boosted its AI budget to as much as $72 billion this year.

- Google raised its estimate to $93 billion for 2025.

- Microsoft is following suit, investing heavily in AI data centers and decision layers.

While Wall Street reacts, the message is clear: AI infrastructure is the next trillion-dollar frontier. RAD Intel already builds that infrastructure — the AI decision layer powering marketing performance for Fortune 1000 brands with recurring seven-figure contracts in place. 

Backed by Adobe, Fidelity Ventures, and insiders from Google, Meta, and Amazon, the company has raised $60M+, grown valuation 4,900%, and doubled sales contracts in 2025.*

Setting up such a commission also means Europe is beginning to think about what will happen after the war in Ukraine is over, a step they would be unlikely to take if they thought the end was still a long way off. Though negotiations still have key issues to resolve, including the all-important territorial disputes between Russia and Ukraine, the sense in Europe seems to be that the war is closer to the end than the beginning. 

Using Russian assets to pay for damages that Russian forces caused in Ukraine seems appropriate, but it also raises questions about the historical track record for reparations. At the end of World War I, Germany was forced to pay extensive reparations to countries it attacked. And the impact of those reparations created widespread economic hardship on the German population, which in turn helped fuel the rise of the Nazi regime a decade later. 

Currently, the European Union has frozen over two hundred billion dollars’ worth of Russian assets, a sum that could go a long way towards rebuilding Ukrainian cities and infrastructure. But there is also the potential for large-scale fraud, as Ukraine is notorious for government corruption since its bureaucratic structures still resemble those of the former Soviet Union. Even if the European Union earmarks Russian assets to rebuild Ukraine, that process cannot begin until the shooting stops.

How it Affects You

The legal process of gathering evidence to substantiate claims that Russia destroyed Ukrainian property, assets, and infrastructure could also shed light on the claims that Russia has been committing war crimes since 2022. The probability that Russia committed war crimes is high, and a legal mechanism to gather evidence to prove it would be a necessary step in holding Russian officials accountable.
