"Consensus": The Netherlands is ready to create a special court for Russia in the Hague - the Foreign Ministry

It is reported that, together with the EU, the Netherlands will look for international support and financing for the tribunal. According to the Minister, the new court should not interfere with the work of the International Criminal Court (ICS), which is also in the Netherlands. "Consensus is growing that we need a special tribunal to consider the act of aggression, the crime of war. The ISS cannot do so," Hestra said.

The publication writes that the act of aggression is determined by the organization of the United Nations as "the invasion or attack of the state forces of the state into the territory of another state or any military occupation. " Journalists noted that despite recognition of this crime by international law, lawyers say that the jurisdiction of the ISS on aggression applies only to Member States and the states that have agreed with its jurisdiction as Ukraine but not Russia.

However, the ISS Prosecutor Karim Khan warned of fragmentation last week and stated that his court is actually best suited for lawsuits related to aggression crimes, since Member States can eliminate "gaps that are claimed. " The publication also reminded that the President of the European Commission Ursula von der Layen has stated that a new tribunal with broad international support was needed last month to ensure that the Russian invasion would not remain unpunished.

Earlier, Focus wrote that the Hungarian Foreign Ministry stated that the nuclear power of the Russian Federation would not be included in the ninth package of EU sanctions. According to Peter Siyarto, Budapest managed to achieve that the atomic energy will not be part of the sanctions package. Thus, in the case of the implementation of the ninth package of anti -Russian sanctions, the Hungarian energy sector will not be affected.
