president putin and those responsible for the war be held accountable. immunity is the key. they opened the door to address. if you look at any war, any, and a war of aggression in the history and they all have one thing in common, the perpetrators of the war didn't believe they would have to stand to officer for what the deed, they must tend to answer for war. however, brings war must receive judgment, which are correspondent rosie birch. odd is covering the latest developments in the hague. she gave us her impression of the landscape, surprise, visit, and appeal for justice. indeed to, once you chose this location, the hague, a on does have a symbolic location because he calls it the center of international justice, the capital of freedom and justice, the capital of international law. because it's home to the international criminal
3:03 pm
court. it's homes international court of justice on several other tribunals that there was one tribunal. he would certainly like to see here. and that is a special tribunal for the crime of aggression which he would like to see most go tried under that. that doesn't exist currently. so lensky is pushing for the creation of such a tribe, you know, but it's not all that easy. it's legally and politically fault. we saw just how difficult it can be to have these uh, the cogs of international criminal justice turn when international criminal court just in the last few months, issued under arrest towards the russian president vladimir putin. but there simply isn't an international police force that can go on her restive and bring him to face trial here in the hague, for those suspected war clients crimes, which of course, russia denies. any involvement in the president to lensky use the speech. and i spoke to someone in the room who said it was really powerful. he spoke about the cases of suspected war crimes. and we're talking about tens of thousands of cases. he talked about
3:04 pm
a suspected cases of rate civilian killings. he talks about kids nothings of children, and he, even off those in the room to take a moment of silence. to commemorate all the victims, no presidents of lensky also comes here, not only to a symbolic locations, but on a symbolic day. because they just remember to stay in the middle of the day when the netherlands reflects and remembers those victims of the 2nd world war. and of course, the lensky is using, drawing on it seems to me those memories to try to evoke uh, the uh, the, what his people are going through today. i'm not so nice as we heard from the prime minister saying that we stand shoulder to shoulder with you. we will stay by your side, you crate. he said, for as long as it takes mentioned, that's prime minister zaleski has held a press conference with him. and the belgian prime ministers will tell us more about that as well. it was all about weapons. it seems to me because lensky came here, not only we thought desire for a special tribunal, but also with
3:05 pm
a wish list of weapons on top of that list. are western fights rejects now he said there's no reason to delay such a decision to send those kind of weapons permit us to remark was just of the level inside. well, there are no taboos but we're not there yet. so it didn't seem like a hard no like that, so absolutely not happening. more like you were saying, there's still a discussion to be how do you vote, for example, the discussion in the past, the right, sending western main bustle tanks to create a bike sending home. it says to crazy said those taboos have phone, but it still was not that hard. yes. that very clear. yes. which present soleski of course would like to have heard on the street. rosie, thank you very much. our correspond at rosie batch out there in the hate. meanwhile, russia has accused us of being behind and alleged drone attack on the kremlin. it says washington organized the attack and ukraine carried it out on wednesday. moscow says the incident was an attempt to assassinate president vladimir putin, adding that sabotage, attacked by cuba,
3:06 pm
had reached what it called unprecedented momentum. ukraine and us have denied any involvement in the drone attack. well, it's good to move from washington in our correspondents amiens' s. if is standing by there, i mean moscow accused is the us of being behind the ledge drone attacks on the kremlin. what is washington saying about that to? well, us national security folks for us and john kirby said that the kremlin was just flat out lying. he said these claims were false, that the us not only did not have any involvement with quote, whatever happened. he's still taking the line that the us does not even know what happens here. so saying that they had no involvement and they're still investigating who was behind these a legit attacks on the kremlin at 1st. moscow blamed just the ukrainians alone. now it's saying the americans were involved to how does this fit
3:07 pm
into moscow strategic interests when the us hear something like that? well, moscow here is really trying to frame this as a proxy war between moscow in the west, the united states and nato. and so they're taking every opportunity here to blame a tax on the us to try to show that the u. s. is directly involved here in the us really wants to pull back from this. now what's interesting, what john kirby also said today was that the us does not encourage or enable ukraine to strike outside of its board or so the washington really does not want anybody seeing this, the weapons shipments to ukraine as weapons that can be used to attack outside of ukraine, only to defend ukraine. this is really seen as defensive aids. here as a washington does not want to be seen as being in a proxy with russia, whereas it is within rushes interest to frame this as
3:08 pm
a war between the united states and russia. and washington really does not want the possibility of escalation here. so i'm on the one hand washington saying that it has no idea who is behind the attacks here. but that is really to pull back and say, we don't have any involvement intact. attacks outside of ukraine's borders they, me and thank you very much. that was our correspondent, amy and so in washington to take a look at some other stories making headlines around the world today. russia's foreign minister, secular lab, ralph is in india for strategic talks. lever also is expected to hold meetings with countries including china, pakistan, and india. the 8 member block was created as a counterweight to us alliances in the region. increasingly close ties between russia and china are likely to feature japan in front sub signed and nuclear cooperation agreement to accelerate development of next generation reactors. the declaration seeks to improve the safety of existing reactors. it will also address
