Cannes – Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy speaks at the Opening
THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — Representatives of a group of nations working together to investigate war crimes in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine are meeting in The Hague amid ongoing calls for those responsible for atrocities to be brought to justice.
Tuesday’s coordination meeting at the European Union’s judicial cooperation agency Eurojust of members of a Joint Investigation Team and International Criminal Court Prosecutor Karim Khan comes as Russian forces continue to pound Ukrainian towns.
The joint investigation team is made up of Ukraine, Lithuania and Poland. It is meeting Tuesday in The Hague and was established in late March. That was a few weeks after the ICC opened an investigation in Ukraine after dozens of the court’s member states threw their weight behind an inquiry.
