The Arbitral Tribunal accepted Outokumpu’s position denying jurisdiction over Outokumpu and ending the arbitration with respect to Outokumpu.

In February 2025, the Arbitral Tribunal confirmed that it did not have jurisdiction to adjudicate the claims brought by RAOS Project and JSC Rusatom Energy International (JSC REIN) against Outokumpu.
