A group working on the creation of a special tribunal for the Russian Federation due to widespread military aggression against Ukraine has already been joined by more than forty countries.
This was reported by the Prosecutor General Andriy Kostin.
Speaking on a national telethon, he noted that over the past year, the number of participating countries has doubled and now exceeds forty.
Kostin emphasized that Ukraine must defeat the aggressor "both on the battlefield and in the courts."
"Because holding the aggressor accountable is the restoration of dignity and justice for all victims of war crimes. Holding the aggressor accountable is also a deterrent to Russia and any other aggressor in any part of the world from repeating such crimes in the future," the Prosecutor General noted.
He also revealed that in the Swiss town of Davos, the Ukrainian delegation presented the second set of Peace Formula points initiated by President Volodymyr Zelensky. Among them, point 7 concerns the restoration of justice. In this context, the Prosecutor General spoke about a comprehensive approach to this issue, in collaboration with international partners.
"We call it the 'Network of Comprehensive Responsibility.' Comprehensive because it is responsibility for all crimes: war crimes, crimes against humanity, aggression, and genocide, as well as compensation for the damage to our state and all victims," he said.
