answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/05/2024 answer text <p>The UK is committed to holding Russia to account for its actions in Ukraine. We are actively engaging in the Core Group established by Ukraine to explore options for a Special Tribunal on the Crime of Aggression, including on the form any tribunal might take. We support exploring the creation of an internationalised tribunal, rooted in Ukraine's jurisdiction but with international elements. The creation of a special tribunal requires both establishing a sound legal basis and securing broad international support.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 23/05/2024 15:24:55 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/07/2023 answer text <p>Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine is marked by increasing evidence of war crimes and crimes against humanity against Ukrainian service personnel and civilians, including executions, torture and sexual violence. We are fully committed to holding Russian forces to account for any atrocities that have been committed in Ukraine. Established accountability mechanisms, including the International Criminal Court's investigations and Ukrainian domestic judicial processes are investigating all allegations of war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide. The UK continues to support these independent investigations, including by establishing the Atrocity Crimes Advisory Group with the US and EU to provide practical and financial support to assist the War Crimes Unit of the Office of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 04/07/2023 10:51:11 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
