Case against the Russian Federation: Ukraine's position in Court in Hague is supported by 24 countries - the Foreign Ministry

According to the Ukrainian ambassador from Anton Corinevich's special assignments, Russia also communicates with the court and is "inside the process. " The UN International Court of Justice in the Hague received 24 statements from states that support Ukraine's position in Ukraine against the Russian Federation on violation of the Convention on the Prevention of Genocide.

Anton Korinevich, an ambassador from special orders of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, told about it in a comment to Ukrinform agency. "There are already 24 statements that they support Ukraine's position," he said. According to Korinevich, the Russian side also communicates with the court and is "inside the process".

"The case is essentially the fact that the Russian Federation has manipulated and manipulates, speculate and speculates that Ukraine allegedly made some mythical" genocide "for 8 years, in particular in the Donbass territory," the ambassador said. According to him, the Ukrainian side is now trying to prove that statements from the Russian Federation are a manipulation and speculation on genocide, which is considered the most difficult of international crimes.

Ukraine had to submit a memorandum on the case until September 23, but it managed to do so on July 1. "We have done everything to do so as soon as possible," Corinevich summarized. We will remind, on November 17, the Hague court found guilty of the collapse of Boeing MH17 of the Russian fighter Igor Girkin (Strelkova) and two of his subordinates. They were sentenced to life imprisonment in absentia. Earlier, the Netherlands Parliament supported the creation of a tribunal for Vladimir Putin.
