The property of Ukrainian entrepreneurs and farmers in the occupied part of the Kherson region has become the property of the Russian Federation.
This was stated by the head of the region’s occupation administration, Volodymyr Saldo, in an interview with pro-Russian media.
According to him, the assets that belonged to Ukrainian owners (which he called “oligarchs and latifundists”) are now considered “state property”. The process of their legal registration under Russian legislation is currently underway.
Saldo clarified that part of the property will transfer to federal ownership of Russia, while the majority of the objects will remain under the authority of the regional occupation authorities.
It should be recalled that in mid-December 2025 Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law that allows housing with no identified owner to be recognized as state or municipal property in temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine, including the Kherson region.
Earlier MOST wrote that at the beginning of 2023 the occupiers announced that they would recognize the property of residents of the TOT of Kherson region as “ownerless” in the absence of the owner. After that, on the left bank they began to massively “nationalize” real estate, and recently changed the procedure, by which they will appropriate the housing of TOT residents.
In October this year the occupation governor of the left bank of Kherson region, Volodymyr Saldo, instructed to speed up the creation of a register of “ownerless” property.
