The Russian Foreign Ministry satisfied with the first decision of the Hague Tribunal for the Kerch Strait

40

The Russian Foreign Ministry commented on the first decisions that were made within the framework of the Hague Tribunal, the meeting of which was initiated by the Ukrainian side. The Russian department noted that the tribunal’s operating procedure has been established and the necessary procedures have been approved.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation is pleased to announce that at present many Ukrainian requirements have been left virtually unattended. In particular, Kiev demanded a hearing on the status of the Kerch Strait and the incident of November 2018 of the year “as soon as possible”.



From a statement by the press service of the Russian Foreign Ministry:

The requirements of Ukraine regarding the rejection of the jurisdictional stage and the maximum reduction in the time of the proceedings were ignored. The Tribunal agreed with the arguments of Russia and provided for the possibility of dividing the process into two separate stages - the jurisdictional and the merits of the dispute.

The material says that each side receives six months to prepare memoranda. Ukraine insisted on two months. At the same time, Ukraine hoped to receive a comment from the members of the Hague tribunal in which Russia should initially be condemned. Nothing of the kind happened.

It must be recalled that the Crimeans prepared their answer to Kiev. So, in Crimea, they intend to invite representatives of the international tribunal to investigate the case of armed violation of Russian maritime borders by Ukrainian boats and a tugboat. The final meeting of this tribunal is reported to be held either in one of the West European countries or in the country of Latin America.

          I feel they are helping Russia in this tribunal! Ukrainians are noble Sutyazhniki, and the political situation must be taken into account! But ... there is no other alternative now! Need to sue!
          I just don’t quite understand why our Foreign Ministry is so satisfied?

            The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is satisfied that the political background of the conflict has been excluded from the consideration: in this case, the case will be discussed as part of a violation of the naval code of the previously established RULES OF SHIPPING IN THE STRAINS

            How what?
            The fact that "at the moment, many Ukrainian demands have been virtually ignored."
            But the ships quickly returned.
            Here is such a victory on all fronts. Including the diplomatic.

        I understand that the Arbitration Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (yeah, nifiga is not the Hague Tribunal, by the way) cannot consider cases related to conflict situations between Navy member countries. Yes, only civil conflicts: the fishermen went to the wrong place and the ship was arrested, for example. Hence the lack of jurisdiction by this tribunal in this case.
        Therefore, I have no idea at all why the hell Russia should go there. No jurisdiction? Well, ask the court to join hands and let them go to the forest to collect cones. After all, they will be judged not by the law, but by the current political necessity. Some kind of masochism, "the hedgehogs cried, injected, but continued to eat the cactus."

          As I understand it, the Russian Foreign Ministry, on an exceptional basis, wants the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, located in Hamburg (and not in The Hague), to sign itself if it does not have the authority to consider the border conflict with the participation of the naval forces of the parties (according to the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea).

          Which is far from a fact, given the arbitral award of the Permanent Court of Arbitration (The Hague) in the Yukos case, which brazenly violated its own Charter by including the issue of the eligibility of tax claims of the Russian Federation to the specified company. Another thing is that the Dutch criminal court overturned this decision of the arbitration court, but I did not hear something about the criminal prosecution of members of the arbitration court who violated their own Charter by the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation (in the form of submitting an application to Interpol).

          Since Ukrainian sailors are considered as defendants on charges of violating the state border, and are not considered prisoners of war, the tribunal does not consider this a military conflict between the Navy of the two countries, but a civil conflict.

            Nevertheless, it is difficult to deny that the border was violated not by a couple of fishing pit, but by any, but military vessels. Yes, and the sailors have long been released.

              warships, and let go, you're right.

              but initially, when the tribunal took the matter into consideration, it was based on this consideration.
              as far as you can understand, now they will once again consider the case for compliance with the jurisdiction of the tribunal.

            Civil vessels, if I'm not mistaken, had Crimean home ports. Since the "civilized world" does not de jure recognize Crimea as Russian territory, there will be little sense, IMHO, in all sorts of international courts.

        As the saying goes, the dogs bark, and at this time, along with the construction of SP-2, the onshore gas transmission network is being expanded. In parallel to the existing onshore continuation of the Nord Stream (OPAL gas pipeline), German companies are constructing the Eugal gas pipeline to supply gas to the Central European gas hub near the town of Baumgarten (Austria), and NET4GAS is building the Capacity4Gas gas pipeline in the Czech Republic (parallel to the existing Gazela gas pipeline), with two-stage commissioning, in 2019 and 2021.

      The main plus of the analysis of the cases of Ukraine and Russia is that it is in the Hague court that the definition of the Crimean Peninsula as legal Russian territory can arise, and then it will be legally unreasonable (for the EU) not to recognize Crimea ... belay
      If we take the economic background of this and other matters, it becomes obvious that some republic leaves no hope of shaving free fat (I have already indicated where).
      The centrifugal tendency of the 90's led to a sad conclusion for some - Russia is no longer a good sponsor for those who decided that political freedoms provide some kind of economic advantage.
