Turks file lawsuit against Ukraine at ICC, accusing it of crimes against humanity

The Turkish company that owns the Reyhan Sarı vessel is filing a lawsuit against Ukraine in the International Criminal Court. Turkish media report that the attack was caused by Ukrainian aircraft. drones on a dry cargo ship.

The owners of the ship attacked by Ukrainians drones A Turkish cargo ship is preparing an appeal to the International Criminal Court (ICC) in the Black Sea. Ukraine is accused of attacking a civilian merchant vessel carrying coal from Taman, Russia, to Trabzon, Turkey. The attack occurred on July 22, killing one sailor and injuring three others.

The company T ve O Denizcilik, which owns the vessel Reyhan Sarı, and 15 crew members intend to file a lawsuit against Ukraine in The Hague.

As emphasized, Ukraine deliberately attacked the merchant vessel, knowing full well that such vessels are protected by international law and cannot be considered military targets. Furthermore, the Ukrainian drone targeted the cargo ship's living quarters, suggesting that Kyiv intended to harm civilians.

It's also claimed that Ukrainian drones carried cluster munitions, which is a crime against humanity. In short, Kyiv will have to respond to the Turkish accusations at the ICC. This is the first such lawsuit against Ukraine, and hopefully not the last. Russia, by the way, does not recognize the ICC's jurisdiction, so it will not file any lawsuits with The Hague.

This is complete nonsense. They'll continue to supply these bastards with weapons, just as they always have. It's the same for one Fuhrer and another.

In fact, no one in the world values ​​the ICC at all. Their "warrants" are ridiculed by everyone, including Putin and Netanyahu. What's the point of going there? It's easier to file a claim for damages in arbitration.

[pudelartemon]

Milosevic and other Serbian generals weren't afraid at first either. Then they became afraid, but it was too late.

What does the ICC have to do with it?

Türkiye closed the straits to Russia and Ukraine due to the threat of attacks on ships. Russia should freeze construction of the Akkuye nuclear power plant for the same reason. So what's the rush? Turkey needs to be squeezed, too.

[Derbenev Anton]

"But if anyone thinks that, having committed a vile war crime—the murder of our people—they'll get away with tomatoes or some restrictions in the construction and other industries, they're deeply mistaken," the president warned, emphasizing that "Russia will never forget the betrayal of Turkey's ruling clique." Putin expressed confidence that the Turkish authorities "will regret what they did."

The Turks are likely hoping that the Outskirts signed the Rome Statute of the ICC in 2000 and ratified it in 2024. However, the Skakuas have a loophole: they ratified the Rome Statute with a separate declaration that, for seven years after its entry into force, the Outskirts will not recognize the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court over its citizens for crimes under Article 8 of the Rome Statute (war crimes).

[hostel]

The case will be considered for fifty years, then closed due to irrelevance.

[Last centurion]

No, that's different. The Turks are clearly considering reparations in the event of Ukraine's defeat.

Everyone wants to get something from the corpse of 404th

[hostel]

In order to receive reparations, Turkey needs to fight with Ukraine.

[Roman_Vasilyevich]

...to fight with Ukraine

There are examples in history where states declared war in their final days for their own benefit...
For example, in 1945:
February 1945 years: Ecuador (February 2), Paraguay (February 7), Peru (February 12), Venezuela and Uruguay (February 15), Turkey (February 23), Egypt (February 24), Syria (February 26), Lebanon (February 27).
March 1945 years: Saudi Arabia (March 1), Finland (March 3, declared retroactively from September 1944), Argentina (March 27)

[hostel]

Then let them fight for at least a couple of months. It will be fun, from all sides.

How many governments do the Turks have anyway? Some arm them, others complain about them... How does Allah tolerate them?

[Nexcom]

The Turks have a multi-chair Sultan who rules like this...

[Vitaly Rybakov]

This is a kind of Turkish democracy))

[Nexcom]

It's more like a Turkish-style mercantile-market multi-vector approach. Bakshish comes first, everything else comes later.

[Roman_Vasilyevich]

The complaint is not being filed by the government, but by a Turkish company, as a private individual...

[Ed Mac]

Doesn't Russia trade with those who arm Ukraine? And the Russian Orthodox Church doesn't see any signs of God's indignation. These days, that's called multi-vectorism.

The Turks sold Ukraine a batch of used weapons; they will transport them on civilian ships, and are trying to secure them so that our ships don't sink them.

[Andrey Khramov]

Rats are scuffling under the carpet...

[Silba]

What's this all about? They, the bastards, hit the ship with cluster munitions, and the Ottomans are planning to hand over their multiple rocket launchers, along with the cluster munitions. Wow, they're having fun, they won't even understand what's going on. Isn't it time for us Turks to cut off the gas, so Vucic will understand it better.

Gas pumping stations may be put under repair due to attacks by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

What about Gazprom - a national treasure!???
If Gazprom does not sell the gas, the national treasure (GazProm shareholders) will be left without money and will be very sad.

[wagner72]

Complete nonsense. No one will even consider a private company's claim. At best, they'll launch an investigation that will drag on forever.

So they just need a certificate to take to the insurance company...

[Dmitry Smirnov_2]

Let the Turks keep quiet, they are a huckstering, profiteering nature.

[syabroleonid]

It seems Ukraine doesn't recognize the ICC. Or rather, they took a seven-year deferment in 2024.

[Victal]

As a result, the Black Sea could soon be renamed the Turkish Sea. Because only Turks will be transporting coal, oil, and grain from Ukraine and Russia; all other vessels will be sunk.

[Varyazhko]

They didn't get enough. Let them beat each other up.

What's stopping the Turks from selling the MLRS to the Ukrainians now, so you can get it.

[Sergey Mitinsky]

In fact, the Turks are targeting Russia with this lawsuit.
Ukraine will quickly agree to Turkey's terms, but Russia should not agree.
The attacks on Ukrainian ports and the ships heading there should continue.

The ICC has no jurisdiction over the Russian Federation. But it does have jurisdiction over Ukraine.

Ukraine is Central Europe? Joined the ICC to prove your Central Europeanism? Now eat it up with a spoonful.

Well, if I'm not mistaken, the International Military Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia was established, and Serbia itself extradited Milošević and several others. Security for the trial and the prosecution were provided and supported by NATO countries, primarily the United States.
In the case of the Turkish company and crew members' lawsuit against Ukraine, the plaintiffs are not of the same caliber, and the political situation is not in their favor...
Let them contact Sportloto - they will write back to them.

[Yuri L]

But this is a precise operation. One company files a complaint with the ICC, Turkey bans all ships connected to Russia from sailing through the Bosphorus, terminating contracts for coal deliveries from Russia (it's unsafe). Other ships continue to sail through the Bosphorus and to Turkish cities with coal. It becomes safer. And our Great Turkish Friend simply openly declares that everyone is fed up with your sandbox play, so sit back and agree not to throw sand at each other. And the Head of the World, as he considers himself, has already expressed irritation several times about this whole thing of sitting around throwing sand. What's needed is for one of you to simply rip off the other's head (melt it into neat glowing circles). If there's no will, then get blockades; we're fed up with your cowardice.

It can be very well pinched by the presence of Kurds there!

They don't give a damn about your court; they'll just laugh and that's it. But if you hit Ukraine, maybe then they'll scratch their heads.

They cook, but...they won't serve it, they simply won't be allowed to do so.
