This was stated by British lawyer Jeffrey Nice on March 15 during a press conference on "International Military Tribunal: What has changed in a year?" Jeffrey Nice, who acted as a prosecutor in court of Yugoslavia's expansion, Slobodan Miloshevich, supported the idea of forming a special tribunal for military aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine.
"Aggression is indeed the most appropriate crime that the Russians need to be judged, so a special tribunal for aggression is definitely a clear idea," the lawyer said. Nice noted the existence of a large number of evidence that the President of the Russian Federation is directly involved in the violation of international humanitarian law in Ukraine in the Russian army.
At the same time, the International Criminal Court has not yet called the Russian President responsible for crimes against humanity. "Why the ISS, which, as I understand, intends to submit the indictments to the judges, acts so slowly? Why do the governments and their leaders are so slow and the interns against Putin and do not say directly that he is a criminal," Jeffrey Nice was indignant.
The lawyer stated that the system of international humanitarian law failed, and Vladimir Putin could avoid trial prosecution for war crimes in the future. According to NAS, if the ISS still charges the President of the aggressor country, then this will probably contribute to compensation for the losses caused to Ukraine by Russian invaders.
As part of the press conference, the director of the Institute for War and Peace Study Anthony Bordden also noted that he was struck by the work of Ukrainian prosecutors and added that the extent of crimes they had to deal with.
On Tuesday, March 7, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmitry Kuleba declared his intention to hold Russian President Vladimir Putin, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Sergey Lavrov and Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoig, depriving them of their "immunity" from persecution. The diplomat also reported that the creation of an international tribunal for the Kremlin elites has already been supported by 30 countries, including the Great Seven countries.
As of March 14, 32 countries have already joined the International Coalition to create a special tribunal on the crime of aggression against Ukraine and to bring the military and political leadership of the Russian Federation. The chief consultant of the Presidential Office Cabinet Oleg Gavrish stated at a press conference on March 14, which in Ukraine is expected to be made by the UN General Assembly of the first decision on the resolution on the Tribunal over the Russian Federation in April.
The Judge of the People's Court in Hague Stephen Rap on the air of the national telemorathone on March 5 noted that the creation of the tribunal over Vladimir Putin requires a successful vote of the UN General Assembly. It is a minimum of 90 votes. According to the statement of the Prosecutor General of Latvia Yuris Stukana of March 1, the tribunal to investigate the military crimes of the Russian army can be created in one day.
