ukraine is trying to attract the russian federation to responsibility, this is the un international court of justiceukraine works in parallel with regard to war crimes and crimes against humanity and a special tribunal of ukraine on the creation of which ukraine is currently actively working. if we talk specifically about the international court of justice and the convention on the prohibition of genocide, then the large number of states that have expressed a desire to join the consideration of this case is already indicative. to such a practice. therefore, we need to be proud of what we managed to do and say that this case arouses serious interest in the world community without paying attention to whether all states will join or not all states will join the legal force of the decision of the un international court of justice will not change as a result, and accordingly, the states may not have the desire to join here as third parties, this is not a mandatory procedure, so we thank everyone who joined. did not join this process, but i will give you the floor, if you please, after we do mention the s

ukrainian ukraine is suffering losses, this is actually the creation of an international tribunal and a line of the international court of justice of the united nations and a separate special tribunal that will and aims to compensate for those losses, this global food security, about which i have already mentioned this question, the one that was raised and actually created by the head of the office andriy yarmak, the yoke group krasnomu sonke kyiv dangerous initiatives and in fact, this will also be promoted with an emphasis on the fact that until ukraine enters the nato ukraine needs a security guarantee, and we see this not just as a way that will guarantee the security of ukraine, but also ukraine's contribution to the global security architecture, as well as the international crimean platform, you know that this year we held a very effective summit 60 countries, including from latin america and africa, just something that did not happen last year, we will continue to expand the geography of the international crimean platform, including in the fields of the general assembly. well, the development of relations with the global

the convention on the prevention of the crime of genocide, but to bring a state to the international court of justices very it was difficult, it was problematic even in the milošević case, in the case of milošević, the defendant was not the state, and therefore it was a matter of international justice. it was a special tribunal and a person stood before the court. and he died without waiting for the verdict, so we do not know whether genocide would have been proven, genocide is a specific crime, it was not considered a crime, but a sociological concept proposed by raphael lemkin, a student of lviv university, who heroically expressed his concern about the murders of armenians during the first world war, he proved the idea that there should be some way to stop such things by law after he failed to get genocide recognized as a crime at the nuremberg trials he appealed to the newly created united nations, the convention applies to states, but now genocide is recognized as a crime in many statutes around the world, which threatens people who violate the international rules of warfare and which courts con

the initiative of ukraine, we mean something like the one that will be created by the international court of justiceggressive war is exactly how an aggressive war is resolved, this is a separate international legal crime, which in this case was committed by the russian federation and 30 representatives of foreign states in 30 regions that were handed documents they primarily represent those states that have united around ukraine, which help ukraine politically, financially, and militarily, and i think that our actions in the first week of the war, when we invited international criminalists to ukraine, who , together with representatives of the prosecutor general's office, together with representatives of the national police of the state bureau of investigation, they recorded the crimes that you are now showing on the screen, as a result of these concerted, consolidated actions, no one has any doubts that russia is at the level higher military direct executors as well as those who brought the crime of the time to responsibility, the office of the president under the leadership of andriy skvirnov work

the international court of justice rules that any declaration of independence proclaimed by people who are pro, claim to be democratic leaders of the people is not against international law. so i just want to preempt any future criticism from the west because of all the western powers, practically the entire political west has recognized so called cost of all, even though it's a part of serbia. and they used dan arguments put forth by the international court of justice, so they have absolutely no right to complain that others are doing the same thing this time and don bus. it's interesting that you said that for sure. and i was going to be part of my question, as of what's gonna happen next on the short term. i mean, well, because it was going to go on with the referendums. are we likely to see, you know, less push towards the domain, especially from give well, i think you're definitely going to see a larger engagement of a regular russian army. that's for sure. ok. and if carol wants to take a crack at the regular russian army and potentially full strength, you know, they're free to d

their role in guaranteeing this agreement with these words prosecutor general of the international court of justice karim khan opened the meeting of the un security council dedicated to holding russia accountable for aggression against ukraine for the hearing we stezhina my colleague iryna solonka she joins the studio from the headquarters un apartments in new york congratulations to irina , the general debate of the un general assembly continues, but the main attention today was focused on the meeting of the security council dedicated to attracting responsibility for russia's war crimes in ukraine, what statements were made? we heard from the delegates how unanimous the position is regarding ukraine. natalya , the majority of countries, that is, the vast majority of countries, of course, once again expressed their support for ukraine, condemned russia's aggression against ukraine, and talked about a diplomatic way to resolve the conflict. it is also very important that among among the speakers was the prosecutor of the international criminal court, in addition to khan, who, in fact, even anticipat

a violating international law for seething $2000000000.00 worth of its assets to destabilize its government. and on monday, the international court of justice is that to begin a hearing on a case filed by ter, on in 2016, something that can set a precedent on what happens with the seizure of russia's assets. it's at least possible that the international court of justice will fight that the u. s. violated iran's rights under international law. if u. s. congress takes the same approach to russia's assets. as it did to ron's, it likely will manifestly violate international law than we have afghanistan, a country already reeling from the consequences of decades of u. s. intervention. also having no access to billions of its foreign reserves. further, stunting its economic growth, the people of, of gun histone had been made to suffer doubly for a government they did not choose. but the u. s. phil refuses to release the 3500000000 and frozen funds, citing fears that the money could fall into the hands of terrorists and stating they're looking for alternative ways to how and let's not forget that the u. s. officials lead the crusade to pressure th

of our international court. the choice of war by russia on a false pretext is a blatant violation. genocide is the worst crime of all, the project of international criminal justice, this is something that really is shocking. the international criminal court noted the abusive conduct by referring to this notion. in fact, the population is subject to terror, threatened using every possible means while we here refuse to be drawn into any escalation. our mission, our duty, our work around this table and council is to give back meaning to things. i want to quote a russian writer, "we must publicly condemn the very idea that men exercise violence against other men by condemning vice," by writing these lines, solzhenitsyn referred to decades of crimes committed by the ussr in its own territory. those words very much apply today to the crimes committed by russia outside the territory. the facts investigated by icc could constitute crimes against humanity. we will investigate but we must say that those response will be identified, prosecuted and ultimately judged. for the victims, the weight may seem long for their families but they must have uncertainty these crimes wil

to bring people to court and do justice to them all modern courts require that you try a person and not a state the only way to try a state is the international court for violation ofs and as i already mentioned one of the most famous treaties is the convention on the prevention of the crime of genocide, but it is very difficult to bring a state to the international court of justice, it was problematic even in the milosevic case. in the milosevic case, the defendant was not the state, and therefore it was for international justice. it was a special tribunal and a person stood before the court. he was convicted of a number of crimes, including hanging, and he died without waiting for the verdict, so we do not know whether genocide would have been proven. genocide is a specific crime. it was not treated as a crime a as a sociological concept proposed by raphael lemkin, a student of lviv university, who heroically expressed his concern about the murders of armenians during the first world war, he proved the idea that there should be some the way to stop such things is through the law after he failed to get genocide recognized as a crime at the nuremberg trial he appea

international court of law. it will be used to mobilize as evidence, legal actions for the justice of shooting along with lawyers acting fishery and family have filed a complaint at the international criminal court. they want the court to open an investigation into her killing. the complaint includes her colleague, elisa moody, who was injured in the shooting, steadfast, and has more from the hague. it's one of the last avenues in the search for justice for al jazeera journalist, marine ugly. it's been more than 4 months and she was shot and killed wild covering israeli rates. and janine the occupied west bank. c c we know that there's only soldiers were able to identify shooting and she was fully get working, press both sides and she was clearly noted as a press. so any person shooting at the press is intentionally trying to get and i'm guessing a someone in the field doing their job. the complaint filed by the families lawyer supported by the palestinian press syndicate and the international federation of journalists. we presenting 600000 media personnel worldwide is a historic day. it is historic day for the

his aggression more than 50 billion dollars, but congo, even after the decisions of the international court of justices for the occupation from uganda. not even the fact of the war itself. by what kind of civilian object will the russian army die, russia can only after a sure victory of ukraine and under international pressure and for arbitration mediators are needed here again it must be the case that it is party a, for example, after russia fulfills certain conditions, for example, the payment of the operation of the extradition of war criminals, for example, gagu, the event may demand, for example, the demilitarization of the border regions of russia in general, yes. and i do not even rule out that it will happen the question of the presence of nuclear weapons in general, including in exchange for, for example, the lifting of part of the sanctions. but while the war continues, the ukrainian authorities are launching another compensation mechanism at the ministry of justice using russian assets confiscated in western countries reported that they have verbal consent to the transfer of 300 billion dol

court, and in the roman statute of documents which, in fact, the international criminal court operates clearly specified crimes against humanity and against the environment and the international criminal court as well as the international court of justice must issue these verdicts they must record the fact of damage recognize all these facts in order to determine this value in general recognize its recovery is another process because it can be forms or reparations or maybe their money that is abroad, but we definitely have to go through these international institutions and the main thing is that it would be good for us push for the creation of a separate tribunal, a separate trial of russia's crimes, and that's right, well, there is the practice of the international criminal court, but there is the practice of the nuremberg trials, and in fact, this history may repeat itself because of the huge volume of it, it is damage that cannot be measured by anything, it is infrastructural facilities - this is critical infrastructure - this is the death of people - this is the rape of children, this is crimes against the environment, that's why it's the amount of work so very quickly, eh, he definitely supports his colleagues regarding all instan

international law. a chain of events is related to international order. the un charter with joins for you right for self determination and the court of justice, a part of the country one team declare it's some independence. it doesn't have to us because of a mission of the central government of its country as it was it all in about him course alone. and why cannot we apply a people's republics? if they have a choice and they do have it in accordance with the young child, and the principal for freedom of self determination, they have made use as a right. and they declare the independence that they have. they strike a deal with them based on the rule in the international court of justice. you know, those are the country you have another country, have to write a yes. that's what we did a nice and can we sign a treaty or mutual assistance and trying to yes, that's what we did with divided by the parliament with respect to parliament. and the duration has to particular publications in particular to provide if it's tennyson case, i think it's aggression on the part of the key of regina that it's illegitimate because it goes back to a code, a ties time source of

of this tribunal? tribunal why can't the existing international judicial institutions be used because because no international judicial institution including the international criminal court or the international court of justicee and issue their sentences and regarding the crime of aggression unfortunately, since russia is not a party to the rome statute and it is not a party to the international national court under any circumstances, this court cannot investigate the crime of aggression against russia. ukraine is also not a party to the rome statute, but ukraine, by three resolutions of the verkhovna rada, granted international to the criminal court of jurisdiction to investigate the case in ukraine, russia did not provide everything, that is why it is necessary to create an international special tribunal that will consider only one issue, the issue of the crime of aggression of the russian federation against ukraine, e-e, the second is how ineffective and correct it is possible to establish such a tribunal, it can be established in several ways the first way is by a decision of the un general assembly such a tribunal can be established and the second such a tribunal can be established on the basis of an in

finally have an international organization that directly supports the creation of a separate crime because, unfortunately, international criminal cases or the international court of justice, the un does not close this crime itself, which is less frightening than us, it is actually the beginning of the feedback of the initiative of a political solution, both by putin and the political leadership of the russian federation, so how important is it that it is already headed by the council of europe, the first the organization that initially said such a resolution of the parliamentary council of europe and now the committee on foreign affairs, which is directly the main political body of the council of europe support this idea, the question is in the form, that is, how exactly it will be organized, and here i am, in principle, we discussed with our representative office the fear that they will present wholesale e-e options as it is comfortable. thus, the council of europe can support the form further exactly well, in fact, the court directly for the fact that putin painted his game in 2014. how do you assess what is happening now in the liberated izyum, and the mayor of izyum

organization speaks of the principles of international law about the correct aim of self-determination during the kosovo crisis the international court of justicee made a decision according to which if any part of the territory of a part of the country wants to declare its independence, this part is not obliged to ask permission from the central government of its country. it 's applicable. uh, the donetsk republic of luhansk why are they the same everything is the same if they they have the right to it, they have it in accordance with the joint he and the principle. uh, the right of the nation to self-determination, they exercise this right, they declared their independence, they have the right from the point of view of international law and the mouth of the un has, uh, where the situation is the same, let's say in iraq, they took it, they threshed the country there and everything is the same for polyvia or ground where it is international law. no, everyone who does this understands that this does not comply with international law, and therefore they talk about some far-fetched rules, what rules, what they came up with, where they forged these

this is the appeal of this assembly through the decision and even the assembly to the un international court of justice, and it is also one of the main bodies of the un, which is the security council, and an equally ideal assembly er, all the questions are clear. and do we consider any un courts that russia occupies the rightful place of the soviet union, and attach to this appeal the documents about which we all already know, the almaty declaration of december, here it is of the first year, especially of course, and there are many others a number of documents that we managed to get uhm digestible and untrue in the un secretariat from that period from which you can make a completely normal legal conclusion that it was illegal and russia could at least uh like all the others by the way of the former republics of the soviet union, except for ukraine and belarus, the founders." all her representatives are in genasom borea again on the basis of the fact that she occupies this place illegally. well , there are other things, er, i would like to advise our listeners and viewers to read the article y-y in the

international law. united nations general assembly is equally clears in its landmark friendly relations declaration of 24 or covered 1970 repeatedly cited the state thing rules of general international law by the international court of justice. the general assembly declared that the 3030 of a state shall not be the object of acquisition by another states resulting from the threats or use of force. and that note that he thought he will, acquisition, resulting from the south or use of force, shall be recognized as legal. and that must be clear if the russian federation is one of the 5 permanent members of the security council. shared that particular responsibility to respect the charter, any decision to proceed with the annexation of barnett's ruins garrison and supported zia, regions of ukraine, who there have no legal value and deserves to be condemns. it cannot be reconciled with international legal framework. it sends against every seeing the international community is meant to stand for it flogged the purposes and principles of united nations. it is a dangerous escalation. it has no place in the modern worlds. it must not be accepted. the position of the united nations is unequivocal. you are fully committed to the sover

the russian federation must comply with the legally binding order of the international court of justice to immediately suspend on military operations against ukraine. germany will continue to support the territorial integrity and the political independence of ukraine within its internationally recognized borders. i thank you. joy, me see, i think the representative of germany for a statement there are no more names inscribed on the list of speakers. the meeting is adjourned. with with so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy, even foundation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic development. only nationally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical of time to sit down and talk with a schools. if you look on the initial, be one of them not to get a can use to put value when you, when you do or change. but you also still listed on the thought it was a what i see the student both, there's no room you lation says diesel to do it on. bob looked it up but he see that there was a jesus she did. yes, it was jus

the appeal of this assembly because of the decision and even the peculiarity of the un international court of justiceh things are also one of the main bodies of the security council and the same ideal assembly is clear. with this question, do we believe that any un court believes that russia occupies the legitimate place of the soviet union, and attach those documents to this appeal about which we all already know, this is the almaty declaration of december 21st of the year ago, of course, there is this and many others, there is a whole series of documents that we managed to obtain uh, uh, uh, fake and untrue in the un secretariat, uh, that's exactly what period from which it is possible to make an absolutely normal legal conclusion that it was illegal and russia could at least er like all other by the way, the former republics of the soviet union except ukraine and belarus as founders." to this, genosambria is authorized again on the basis that it occupies this place illegally. well , there are other things, eh, i would like to advise our listeners and viewers to read the article y-y in the mirror o

of international law. in general, i will give a simple chain of the international court of justice. a decision, according to which, if any part of the territory is part of the country, he wants to declare his independence, this part is not required to ask permission from the central government of its country. this applies to the body. it is accepted when several republics of kurgan why are they the same everything is the same, if they have the right to it, they have it in accordance with the joint he and the right of the nation to self-determination. they exercise this right, declared their independence, have the right in terms of international law and the un charter, have this right confirmed by the relevant court decision. he's notable, kosovo's precedent, if they have the right they did it. we and every other country have the right to recognize them, we have recognized them, if we recognize them, we can conclude an international treaty with them, and friendship , cooperation and mutual assistance. of course, we can conclude, and there certain duties lie on the russian side to prov

the provisional measures ordered by the international court of justice and complying with the general assembly resolutions of the 2nd and 24th of march this year. as to relate the reports of the office of the high commission for human rights, a total more than 5700 civilian deaths, a document in the ukraine. underlying the o h i. c h u r. believes that the actual figures are considerably higher. more over the number of dead need, your civilians is growing every day since new crimes against civilians are discovered and new attacks from civilians executed regularly by the russian military. mr. president, we call in the russia to immediately stop violating international humanitarian law and human rights of people of ukraine. we strongly condemn the force per passport is ation and conscription of the russian armed forces in the russian on forces the citizens of ukraine who live in the temporary occupied territories. we strongly condemn deportation of ukrainian civilians to russia forcibly transferring of children, illegal adoption of ukraine and children, as well as abduction of civilians

this is in addition to the international criminal court, it should be one and the other, there are limitations, there are opportunities for the international court of justices about war crimes; the second is about trials, we are working with western countries so that they adopt laws that allow the confiscation of frozen russian assets around the world. how do we know that they are frozen ? and it is important that the second country that you could already take that money and use it in the development of the enterprise, the world congress called on the assembly to create an international war crimes tribunal passed i just told you in a little more detail, but tell me, as a person who communicates with many foreign politicians and the west understands that it is quite difficult to reach a fair decision, for example, in the case of a green house when it is located on the occupied territory and when international observers are not allowed there and when they are allowed well, first of all, i believe that we are not on the same side of the territory and can start these processes, but still we have seen it. ukraine already has research on these war crimes today,

, the head of the investigative committee without a trikin, who said, let's go to the international court of justice , affect these processes we will specifically create an international tribunal against ukraine itself, and hypothetically this intention can be supported by iran, bolivia and syria. we cannot say that it will not affect in any way if they resort to such a russian side. and this is exactly there is an indicator of the fact that they notice these things and start to get nervous, that is, to understand that these things, because you see, it is not for nothing that it immediately sounds as if in opposition to the legal fixation that our country is doing together with international partners. that is , it is an attempt to allegedly interrupt, well, traditionally , to completely blur the context it is true to say and we also have our own tribunal, that is, i heard why you are here with your tribunal we have created our own thank you oleksiy and actually this is a long-standing tactic of russia to interrupt and not to invent something new oleksiy that he is a political scientist by this in th

of these several issues. although i love it requires the and i returned to the full respect for international law as demanded by the international court of justice starting on the 16th of march, and that they return to full sovereignty of ukraine. among these challenges, the assault ah, on ukraine, by russia, exposes as to the severe risk to the ukrainian nuclear facilities. the league is the actions of the russian armed forces near the power plant and legal occupation of the power plant significantly. increase your risk of an accident. this situation represents an unacceptable risk not only for ukraine, but for europe as a whole. it is russia that bears the responsibility for this, and it is russia that must answer for it. by withdrawing it's true, it's our troops from the power plant and from all of ukrainian terror. the rest is trying to accuse the, this is just the adversary, but it, russia is acting as a more someone who sits fire is it? it sets fires and then a distributed advice on how to fight it for several weeks. now, france has been mobilized at the highest level in order to facilitate the deployment of the experts of the i. e to thes

us, and not only when, after all, we can see these first i don’t know meetings and the international court of justice for example, if we are talking about this so-called international jurisdiction when other countries can file a case against russia in the same way in this context. what is your prediction, we appoint every serviceman of the russian federation , that is why we appoint commanders who give such orders automatically, we appoint the top management, we legally do everything to condemn their actions and then make it this is an international criminal court, we are helped by judges of the international criminal court , mr. khan, he came twice, as far as i know, he came to ukraine twice, he has a very good working relationship with the office they are just making the prosecutor general a procedural leader and accumulating all this evidence. believe me, in this sense, there will be many unpleasant surprises for the russian federation. such was the interview with the ukrainian mambudsman dmytro nopinets. we are continuing our graduation this year. thousands of ukrainian schools are destroyed or d

or many others, they really help ukraine and well, they didn’t summon those from the international court of justicee case after our victory, but now they understand, and here are these mps of 18 districts who are now demanding their resignation they can do anything about putin only we have 30 seconds to help, and this is a completely different issue, because this is an obvious split in the eta and that is why putin is trying to imprison them if possible as soon as possible and is already opening a criminal case against them. they are heroes and they are well done and we must help them . ilya ponomaryov , a member of the forum of the free peoples of russia, ah, well, have you heard his opinion, ah, next to us, there is a small interview, a large one, so higher motivation, better training and modern support allow the armed forces of ukraine to defeat the enemy even inferior to him quantitatively, it already gave results during the counter-offensive in the kharkiv region, and in the future will lead to a turning point in the war, the hero of ukraine and major general ihor hordiychuk believes that abou

maybe you will not be able to raise this investigation to the level of or of the international court of justicee un or some other organizations, maybe this will in a certain way lead to an increase in certain defense supplies for ukraine , because again, the next in the risk zone is our gas pipeline, and accordingly, if it is not yet available, we will need additional equipment so that we can protect it not only from the fact that gas will not be supplied through it, but also from the fact that russia does not arrange an ecological disaster on the territory of ukraine, because in fact this you already know there was food blackmail there was energy blackmail there was nuclear blackmail and now the environmental blackmail is starting so real and this is such a tension too that tomorrow it can also happen in ukraine or somewhere on another object that russia owns, so that's me it seems that there will still be some such alternative mechanisms that cannot be called directly a punishment, i have no idea what he wants to pay, what about uh, many people were scared on the super shores, that somewhere

of the international criminal court and countries who support both ukraine and i.c.c. worked collectively to collect evidence of russian crimes and hold perpetrators to account. we trust the international criminal court. justice will be served. we owe it to not only thousands of victims but future generations in ukraine and beyond. there will be no peace without justice. i emphasize none of this would have been possible without crimes against ukraine. it cannot go unpunished and to put president putin on trial is to establish a special tribunal. i reiterate my call on all states to back this undertaking for the very sake of principles of humanity and u.n. charter. many of you may listen to me right now with one question in mind, is there a chance for peace. will ukraine negotiate with russia to end this war? i want to say crystal clear, no other nation in the world pays for peace more than ukraine. president zelenskyy was outspoken about this yesterday, we have never wanted anything but peace and never wanted this war and never chose it. we want to lead a normal life. but it's not enough for ukraine to want peace. russia must prioritize diplomacy over war in order to give peace a chance. russian leadership is
