At the same time, according to him, Kiev conducts negotiations with the Russian Federation regarding the “interpretation and application of part of the UN conventions under which the Russian Federation recognizes the jurisdiction of the relevant arbitration court”.
“In addition, we are going to start such negotiations in relation to other international treaties under which the Russian Federation recognizes the jurisdiction of international courts and arbitration institutions,” added Yanchuk.
Earlier, the Security Council of Ukraine instructed the government to "begin the procedure for filing a claim to the Hague Tribunal" with accusations of Russia for crimes against Ukrainian citizens in the Donbas. According to the Ministry of Justice, Kiev has already filed a lawsuit against the Russian Federation with the European Court of Justice 3. The first one, concerning the events in Crimea, was sent in March last year.
Recall that last week the Russian Public Chamber reported on preparations against the Ukrainian side of 17 thousand claims for about € 5 billion. Materials should be sent to the ECHR this autumn.
