To return to the system of international justice, it is necessary to bring the Russian aggressor to justice - Volodymyr Zelenskyy at a meeting of the autumn session of the PACE

In order to ensure the return to the system of international justice, it is necessary to isolate Russia diplomatically and economically and recognize it with the state - a sponsor of terrorism, and all those who are guilty of aggression against Ukraine - should be held accountable. This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, answering questions at the plenary session of the Autumn PACE session.

“It is necessary to isolate the Russian Federation as diplomatically so that society in Russia will know and pay a high price for this aggression. So that society starts pressing on its military-political leadership. Therefore, the maximum sanction policy is what you can do, ”the President of Ukraine said. He also emphasized the importance of Russia's recognition by a sponsor of terrorism to ensure a system of international justice.

"It is important for the Russian society to understand that it is a society of a terrorist state and from that moment the borders of European states are not open to him," Volodymyr Zelenskyy said. "The most important thing is the political and informational support of Ukraine today, and you can do it," the head of state added and urged not to get tired of the war, but to support our country on the way to victory.

According to the President, specialists from different states work on the investigation of Russian crimes: Poland, Slovakia, France, Baltic countries - and our state is open to the help of the international community in this matter. “A large number of people killed. A large number of exhumation actions are required. Therefore, we are grateful for any technical support as well, ”said Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

The President also noted that Ukraine is waiting for the opening of the International Criminal Court in Kiev. “The prosecutor Khan is now talking to our Attorney General. We expect this process to be accelerated and the office is open, ”he said. In addition, Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized the need to support the UN resolution to establish a special international tribunal. “We return to the system of international justice. It is justice - to hold all the perpetrators, ”the Head of State said.

According to the President, Ukraine seeks to involve international experts in the work of a special international tribunal. “It is important that all this worked out that the international tribunal is organized. And here the question is not who is the main one in it and from which state. The main thing is that these are ambitious professional people, tuned for the result, ”he is convinced.
