If the court in a proceeding under Section 12-666 finds that the foreign-country judgment is entitled to recognition under this Act then, to the extent that the foreign-country judgment grants or denies recovery of a sum of money, the foreign-country judgment is:
         (1) conclusive between the parties to the same extent
    
as the judgment of a sister state entitled to full faith and credit in this State would be conclusive; and
        (2) enforceable in the same manner and to the same
    
extent as a judgment rendered in this State.
