“There can be no impunity for war crimes” – Borrel
What happened? The European Union, the United States and the United Kingdom have announced the establishment of the Atrocity Crimes Advisory Group ACA in Ukraine.
Source. This is said in a statement by the US State Department.
Details. The Commission will support the work of the Prosecutor General's Office of Ukraine in documenting, storing and analyzing evidence of crimes committed by russian servicemen in Ukraine in order to bring them to justice.
“The ACA will reinforce current EU, US and UK efforts to further accountability for atrocity crimes in the context of russia’s ongoing war of aggression against Ukraine. It advances commitments made by the European Union, the United States, and the United Kingdom to demonstrate international support and solidarity at this crucial historical moment for Ukraine,” the statement says.
“The ACA seeks to streamline coordination and communication efforts to ensure best practices, avoid duplication of efforts, and encourage the expeditious deployment of financial resources and skilled personnel to respond to the needs of the OPG as the legally constituted authority in Ukraine responsible for dealing with the prosecution of war crimes on its own territory,” it is stated.
“It is critical to ensure that all those responsible for the terrible atrocities committed during the unprovoked russian military aggression in Ukraine are brought to justice. There can be no impunity for war crimes,” says EU Foreign Minister Josep Borrel.
