The Dutch Foreign Ministry said that, together with EU countries, they will seek international support and funding to create a tribunal.
In the Netherlands, they announced their readiness to create a special tribunal in The Hague, where they will try those responsible for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. On Monday, December 12, according to Reuters.
The publication writes that the Dutch Foreign Minister Wopke Hoekstra said that the International Criminal Court in The Hague will not be able to cover this case, so it is necessary to create a separate structure. He added that the Netherlands, together with EU countries, sought international support and funding for this.
Also, ISS Prosecutor Karim Khan warned last week of the possibility of fragmentation and said that his court was actually best suited for trials involving crimes of aggression, as member states could fill “gaps that said to exist.”
It was previously reported that the UN has a draft resolution on the establishment of an international tribunal to hold the Russian leadership accountable for crimes of aggression in Ukraine.
