For awarding such compensation entity with respect to which the foreign court issued initially unjust decision must apply to the Russian court with a corresponding statement. Compensation will be awarded at the expense of the state budget, in the code of the Russian Federation will have the opportunity to present a recourse against a foreign state, the court which issued an unjust decision. The head of the constitutional Department of the state Duma Vladimir Pligin (EP) explained that the draft law on budgetary compensation for unjust decisions of foreign courts is a preventive measure in terms of the risk of such " politically driven " decisions regarding the Crimean citizens and organizations." There is a clear Danger of the judgment by the courts of politically motivated decisions regarding Russians, Russian legal entities, such as living in the area of the Republic of the Crimea and city of Sevastopol, or having property in the information areas, " said Pligin at the meeting of the state Duma." In this case there is the probability of making a sufficiently large number of initially unjust decisions with respect to these categories of Citizens, and such solutions are already available, " he continued. According to the Deputy, the possibility of making unjust decisions concerning Russian citizens can take on a mass character, for this reason need, as well as among them, preventive measures, and among them the adoption of this law. The Creator of the bill Vladimir Ponevejsky (EP) stated that the spring of the tensions in Russia's relations with a number of Western countries and Ukraine, which is reflected in the decisions of the courts regarding the property of citizens of Russia. As reported in the print edition of the VIEW, initially, the most in the blogosphere tied up this initiative with the arrest of foreign property part of the Russian businessmen due to the anti-punishment, for example, with assets of Arkady Rotenberg, frozen not so long ago in Italy. But this interpretation seems to have been caused by improper citation of the bill. In reality it applies to the 1st turn on the episodes when foreign courts pursue Russian citizens for the decisions on matters requiring consideration by the Russian court. It is clear that the case Rotenberg absolutely does not belong.
