The Ukrainian ambassador to the Netherlands, Andriy Kostin, emphasized the importance of establishing a Special Tribunal for the crime of aggression against Ukraine. He noted that existing international mechanisms cannot effectively investigate such crimes.
'The establishment of a Special Tribunal for the crime of aggression is a key step in ensuring accountability for this type of crime. Our fight for justice for Ukraine is a fight against impunity,' the ambassador emphasized.
Kostin stressed that the main goals of establishing the tribunal are to restore justice and prevent similar aggressions in the future. The use of international justice is an important tool for deterrence in a world where the rule of law is undermined.
As Andriy Kostin noted, the establishment of the Special Tribunal for crimes of aggression against Ukraine is a step towards ensuring accountability for these crimes, preventing similar actions in the future, and restoring justice.
