The International Court of Justice in The Hague today begins hearings on Ukraine’s lawsuit against Russia, filed by Kiev immediately after Russian troops invaded the country last year.
In its lawsuit, Kyiv demands that Moscow be held accountable for distorting the concept of “genocide” to justify the attack on Ukraine.
Russia said it was trying to prevent genocide in eastern Ukraine. Kyiv rejected the claim, saying the 1948 UN Genocide Convention does not allow invasion to prevent it.
Russia argues that the International Court of Justice has no jurisdiction in the case because the convention does not regulate the use of force between states. Public hearings on preliminary objections raised by Russia will be held from September 18 to 27. They will take place in two stages: Russia will perform on September 18 and 25, and Ukraine on September 19 and 27.
In addition to Ukraine and Russia, 32 other UN member countries are participating in the process, including Germany, Austria, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Belgium, Estonia, Finland, Ireland, Austria, Luxembourg, Sweden, Bulgaria, Canada and Australia. Their representatives will also speak during these hearings.
