The NATO Parliamentary Assembly adopted a resolution recognizing Russia as a terrorist state and calling for the creation of a special International Tribunal.
Russia is gradually being recognized as a terrorist state by more countries and organizations. Following Ukraine, the Baltic countries, Poland, the Czech Republic, this has been done by PACE, the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, and the European Parliament is also preparing to adopt a corresponding decision. What implications does this have for the invaders?
There will be a tribunal
The NATO Parliamentary Assembly adopted a resolution recognizing Russia as a terrorist state and calling for the creation of a special International Tribunal. All 30 NATO countries supported the relevant decision.
Such a tribunal will allow to condemn not only the direct perpetrators of war crimes, but also the highest leadership of the Russian Federation, the people’s representative said.
In addition, the resolution considers the increase of arms supplies to Ukraine, the development of concrete measures for Ukraine’s entry into NATO, the creation of a mechanism for collecting reparations from the Russian Federation for the damage caused by Ukraine.
The resolution also established the principle that NATO would support Ukraine as long as necessary.
Russia lost
The President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky addressed the NATO Assembly today. He called Russian strikes on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure facilities tantamount to using weapons of mass destruction.
“Russia has bet on a genocidal policy, that is why it is destroying our energy infrastructure. To turn off electricity, water and heat supply in winter is Russia’s goal, to put the lives of millions of people under direct threat. This is equivalent to the use of weapons of mass destruction. An absolute crime,” he said.
Jens Stoltenberg, Secretary General of the Alliance, speaking there, said: “Putin thought he would defeat Ukraine in a few days. Nine months later, Russia continues to fail after failure. And the Ukrainians are continue to liberate their territory from occupation.Most recently, Kherson.
The USA doesn’t want it
Americans have yet to recognize Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism.
“In the West, of course, they consider the nuclear status of the Russian Federation. The status of the state-sponsor of terrorism means that the contacts of most countries of the world with this country are blocked. And it is true. Now Russia becomes a sponsor of terrorism. This means that China, for example, can no longer have any relations with this country. Or the same India that buys Russian oil. That is, it creates some problems, ” said Ukrainian diplomat Volodymyr Ohryzko.
Therefore, in his opinion, the US administration is seriously considering how, on the one hand, to declare Russia as a sponsor of terrorism, and on the other hand, to find the right modus vivendi with those countries that, because of others’ t other events, are ongoing. to support some contacts in the Russian Federation.
