ICYMI: Ukraine to issue legal demands on crypto exchanges to freeze Russian accounts
Now, Ukraine is upping the pressure.
“We plan to make legal demands. We are preparing letters,” Yulia Parkhomenko, head of the virtual assets expert group at the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, told The Block.

So far, it has received more than $9 million in crypto donations.© 2022 The Block Crypto, Inc. All Rights Reserved. This article is provided for informational purposes only.
