Abstract
Russian corporate assets worth billions of dollars are frozen in western capitals pursuant to a robust sanctions regime imposed in the wake of Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine in 2022. While frozen, those assets accrue interest. The costs of rebuilding Ukraine after the war are estimated to exceed $400 billion. This Article offers a legal framework to seize those assets through criminal prosecution of Russian corporations that were complicit in the commission of war crimes. By adapting the practice of securing international arbitration awards, which are regularly satisfied through attachment of assets by courts in foreign jurisdictions, the authors lay the legal process foundation for Ukraine to secure some of the funds that it needs to begin rebuilding its country.
