01:44UK: Russia-Ukraine Eurobond case goes to Supreme Court
Britain's Court of Appeal upheld Ukraine's request to appeal to a High Court verdict in a dispute with Russia over a $3 billion (€2,77 billion) Eurobond, in London on Friday.
Moscow bought Ukrainian Eurobonds in 2013, before Ukraine defaulted in December 2015.
Ukraine later disputed the validity of the loan on the grounds of "duress" arising from "Russian aggression", with regard to Crimea's secession and the events in eastern Ukraine.
Judges found that Ukraine's case should be the subject of a trial, after the country appealed against a previous ruling that it did not provide "justiciable defence".
The dispute will be now settled by the Supreme Court.
