Goals / Remit
GML Limited is a diversified financial holding company established in 1997. Its goal is to obtain justice for the unlawful expropriation of its investment in the former Yukos Oil Company.
GML was the majority shareholder of the former Yukos Oil Company. In 2014, an independent international Arbitral Tribunal in The Hague ruled unanimously that Yukos was illegally expropriated by the Russian Federation. The Tribunal awarded compensation of more than $50 billion to the former majority shareholders.
In February 2020, The Hague Court of Appeal confirmed the Arbitral Awards, quashing a 2016 ruling of the District Court. In November 2021, the Dutch Supreme Court affirmed the substance of that ruling referring one minor remaining issue to the Court of Appeal in Amsterdam, which dismissed Russia's final setting aside claim in 2024.
GML aims to ensure that the Arbitral Awards are upheld, and that the Russian Federation complies with them.Main EU files targeted
GML aims to inform the EU institutions about its legal proceedings in the Netherlands, since those proceedings are relevant to a number of EU principles and policies, including the rule of law, promotion of investment, energy policy, and relations with the Russian Federation.

The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
