Ukraine's Foreign Ministry has announced the imminent establishment of a special tribunal designed to prosecute Russian war crimes committed in Ukraine. This tribunal will be officially inaugurated at the Council of Europe Committee of Ministers meeting scheduled for later this month.
In collaboration with foreign ministers representing about 40 countries, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry revealed that the technical legal groundwork necessary to form the tribunal has been finalized. This development marks a significant step towards holding Russian leaders accountable for their actions since the 2022 invasion.
The Council of Europe Committee of Ministers will convene in Luxembourg on May 13-14 to formally establish the tribunal, which will primarily target key Russian figures responsible for the invasion.
