AI-generated summary, report an errorThis Senate resolution states that Russia bears full financial responsibility for harm caused by its war against Ukraine and that Russian assets should be used to pay for it. It recommends that the executive branch argue internationally that Russia has lost sovereign immunity protection over its assets abroad. It urges countries holding Russian sovereign assets to give their governments seizure powers like those in a 2024 U.S. law, to join a multilateral fund with the United States, and to confiscate the assets and give them to Ukraine in amounts of at least $10 billion per month. It also calls on the President and the Secretaries of State and Defense to give priority in U.S. weapons sales to countries that seize these assets for Ukraine, and lower priority to those that do not. As a resolution, it states the Senate's position and does not create binding law.
