Europe takes steps to hold Russia accountable for damages in Ukraine
TL;DR
More than 40 nations at the Council of Europe summit in Iceland agreed to set up a register of damages inflicted by Russia on Ukraine, with the aim of getting reparations. The register will allow Ukrainian victims of war to catalog the harm they have suffered. The summit also discussed the details of a potential future tribunal where Russia would face charges for waging war. The United Nations’ top court announced it would hold hearings next month in a case between Russia and Ukraine.
