According to Shipping Administration Head Yevhen Ihnatenko, the corresponding changes were registered with the IMO.

“This is a historic moment for our country. For the first time in Ukraine's history, the seized asset located abroad received state registration in Ukraine. This will facilitate the further sale of the seized yacht and the transfer of the proceeds to the state budget of Ukraine,” Ihnatenko emphasized.

A reminder that the Dutch auction house, Troostwijk Auctions, won the ARMA's tender to auction the seized yacht Royal Romance but refused to sign a further agreement to organize the auction.
