According to Raab, the conference helped attract additional international funding for the ICC, as well as other proposed resources from European countries, particularly support for investigations and forensics.
In this regard, the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, Karim Khan, said that the arrest warrant for Putin is not a moment of victory, but a “sad event” that reminds the world that joint international action is the key to establishing justice for Ukraine.
