KYIV, Jan 29 – An English court postponed the final decision in a dispute between Russia and Ukraine over $3 billion debt issued by pro-Russian government in 2013 months before it had fled to Russia following massive street protests.

The English Court of Appeal said it will need more time after a five-day consideration on Ukraine’s appeal of a previous ruling by the High Court of Justice in England.

"The judges reserved their judgment until a later date. The results of the appeal proceedings will be announced after the English Court of Appeal hands down its judgment," the finance ministry said.
