In response to the signing of the Agreement on the Establishment of a Special Tribunal to Investigate Crimes of Aggression against Ukraine in Strasbourg, First Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Serhiy Kyslytsya stated that Moscow is recognizing the inevitability of facing accountability for its actions. This international agreement represents a significant step in the pursuit of justice for crimes of aggression against Ukraine.
Kyslytsya’s statement highlights the growing international pressure on Russia to face the consequences of its actions in the ongoing conflict. The agreement, which was signed by various countries, is designed to ensure that those responsible for the crimes of aggression against Ukraine are held accountable. This development comes at a time when Ukraine is continuing its efforts to secure international support for its cause.
The establishment of the special tribunal is a crucial step toward ensuring justice for the victims of the war in Ukraine. While the agreement is a positive development, the effectiveness of the tribunal will depend on the willingness of the international community to support its operations and ensure that those responsible for the crimes are brought to justice.
