“For all its crimes, Russia will pay in every sense – including reparations. From now on, this is the will of the UN. Everything will be Ukraine,” Yermak wrote.
The resolution was supported by 94 countries, against – 13, abstention – 74. At the same time, Belarus, Central African Republic, China, Cuba, North Korea, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Iran, Mali, Nicaragua, Russia, Syria and Zimbabwe voted against the adoption of the resolution.
The resolution states that “the Russian Federation must be held accountable for any violation of international law in or against Ukraine, including its aggression in violation of the UN Charter, as well as any violation of international humanitarian law and international human rights law , and that it shall bear by law the consequences of all their wrongful international acts, including reparations, including any damage caused by such acts.”
In addition, UN member states recognize the need to create, in cooperation with Ukraine, “an international mechanism for compensation for damage, loss or damage resulting from the international illegal actions of the Russian Federation in Ukraine or against Ukraine.”
The adopted resolution also recommends the creation by UN members, in cooperation with Ukraine, of an “international register of losses to register the evidence caused by all interested individuals and legal entities, as well as the state of Ukraine as a result of Russia’s international illegal actions in Ukraine.”
