Russia claims its invasion of Ukraine was done to prevent genocide, Ukraine argues Russia is abusing international law by saying the invasion was justified
Russia and Ukraine will square off before the International Court of Justice on Monday in a case that centres around claims by Moscow that its invasion of Ukraine was done to prevent genocide.
Moscow says Ukraine is using the case as a roundabout way to get a ruling on the overall legality of its military action. In the hearings the court will also hear from 32 other states, all supporting Ukraine’s argument that the court has jurisdiction to move the case forward. While Russia has so far ignored the ICJ’s orders to stop its military actions and the court has no way of enforcing its decisions, experts say an eventual ruling in favour of Ukraine could be important for any future reparations claims.
