The territory and buildings of the Russian Compound, confiscated by the Turks during the First World War and only partially (approximately 40%) returned to the USSR by the Israeli government after the emergence of the State of Israel, now want to be returned in full. One difficulty is that the Jerusalem Magistrate's Court is located here. To resolve the issue as quickly as possible, the Kommersant newspaper writes, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert invited the Russian side to take part in financing the construction of the Palace of Justice, which, according to estimates, will cost approximately $95 million.
