37 states officially approved the agreement necessary to establish the Special Tribunal for the Crime of Aggression against Ukraine and move it towards operation in The Hague. This is a milestone for international justice.
The Tribunal is built on a principle established after the Second World War: those who unleash wars of aggression bear personal responsibility for that decision. russia’s war against Ukraine did not happen by itself. It was planned, authorised and executed by specific individuals.
They must be held accountable. Because lasting peace is impossible without justice – and aggression must never remain without consequences.
