A brief analysis of the concept of a special #tribunal for the crime of aggression (STCA).
 Taking into account that the crime of aggression is subject to the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court (ICC), and in order to bring 🇷🇺 to justice within the framework of the👇
👆ICC, according to the ICC Statute and the Kampala Amendments, the referral of the case to the ICC by the UN Security Council (UNCS) is required. Since the current configuration of the UNSC does not allow for this, Ukraine has started looking for a way out of this situation.👇
👆The current concept of the establishment of the SCTA promoted by the MFA proposes to sign an agreement between Ukraine and the UN (the Secretariat) on the establishment of the SCTA within the framework of the 11 emergency special session of the UN GA. justsecurity.org/tag/u-n-genera…👇
👆Taking into account that the ICC has substantive jurisdiction over the crime of aggression and has temporary, personal and territorial jurisdiction over the situation in Ukraine, it can be stated that the proposed solution to the problem by creating a parallel judicial body👇
👆 to investigate war crimes is, in fact, extra-legal. It contradicts the ICC Statute, which qualifies the fact of creating such courts as an independent war crime, creates a conflict between the UN normative documents, and creates a dangerous precedent for the adoption of 👇
👆decisions by some member states that directly violate the fundamental documents of the organization. Moreover, this is recognized by the authors of the concept themselves.
In addition, it should be noted that the precedent of creating an additional, parallel body, not limited👇 Image
👆in its activities by the strict framework of ratified conventions and agreements (which in the case of the ICC were developed over 60 years) and uncontrolled by the UNSC, opens the way for manipulations of certain unscrupulous countries (🇷🇺, Iran ....), capable of abusing👇
👆this newly created mechanism to divert attention from their own crimes, by, for example, initiating criminal prosecution of countries that participated in hostilities in Iraq! And de facto to bring our main allies (the 🇺🇸and🇬🇧) and #Ukraine itself to criminal responsibility!👇
👆The preliminary idea of creation of the CTSA by signing interstate agreements has all the above-mentioned drawbacks and many others! gordonandsarahbrown.com/wp-content/upl…👇
👆At the same time, there is a solution that requires less diplomatic effort and strictly complies with International Law, the UN Charter, and precedent-setting decisions of the UNGA, as well as is consistent with the publicly expressed position of our main ally.👇 Image
👆🇷🇺 is the only country in the world that is in the UN and the UN Security Council illegally and has not ratified the UN Charter. To expel 🇷🇺 from the UN according to the "Chinese scenario", half of the votes of the UN GA is enough! kickrussiaout.info👇
👆Expulsion of 🇷🇺 from the #UN will unblock the activities of the UN Security Council and will allow to create an international tribunal like the "Yugoslavian" or by the UN Security Council Resolution to recognize #russia's current aggression and transfer the case to the ICC!

Publishing statements from all the leaders who gave their comments after the summit:

Keir Starmer:

He says he called today’s meeting “to unite our partners around this effort to strengthen Ukraine, and to support a just and enduring peace for the good of all of us”.

“Our starting point must be to put Ukraine in the strongest possible position now so that they can negotiate from a position of strength, and we are doubling down in our support”

We will go further develop a coalition of the willing to defend a deal in Ukraine and to guarantee the peace.

Not every nation will feel able to contribute, but that can’t mean that we sit back.

Instead, those willing will intensify planning now with real urgency. The UK is prepared to back this with boots on the ground and planes in the air, together with others.

We have agreed that the leaders will meet again very soon to maintain the momentum of these actions and continue to work on a common plan.

We are at a crossroads in history today.

This is not a moment for more talk. It’s time to act.”

Starmer, meanwhile, rejects suggestions that the U.S. is now an “unreliable ally” because, he says, it has been and remains a reliable ally for many decades.

He says today's talks were held on the basis that Europe would work together with the US. Apparently, not everyone has realized yet that America is a reliable ally, though not for Ukraine and Europe.

But it is good that Starmer's statements were not limited to words. On top of the £2.2bn loan announced yesterday, Starmer now adds another £1.6bn in UK export finance allowing Ukraine “to buy more than 5,000 air defence missiles, which will be made in Belfast, creating jobs in our brilliant defence sector.”

“This will be vital for protecting critical infrastructure now and strengthen Ukraine in securing the peace when it comes because we have to learn from the mistakes of the past. We cannot accept a weak deal like Minsk, which Russia can breach with ease,” he says.

Starmer also gets asked if he can rule out a conflict between the UK and Russia.

He says that the whole point of the guarantee he is assembling for Ukraine is to guarantee peace and avoid further conflict.

"I do not want conflict in Ukraine, in Europe, and certainly not in the United Kingdom. I want stability in the United Kingdom.

The way to ensure that stability is to ensure that we are able to defend a deal in Ukraine, because the one thing our history tells us is that if there is conflict in Europe, it will wash up on our shores."

In the end Starmer sayed that any final deal “will have to involve Russia”, but it should not dictate the guarantees that can be offered to Ukraine given the history of Russian breaches in the past.

“That is precisely the situation that I think we need to avoid this time around, which is why we’re going down this road.”

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte:

it was “a very good meeting”, with European countries “stepping up”, both in terms of their own spending, and in support for Ukraine.

“Today at the table, I heard new announcements, and I’m not going to announce them to you, because they should do this [themselves], but this was very good news that more European countries will ramp up defence spending”.

He notes that there is no peace deal yet, but “we have to prepare for that moment and make sure that European countries are willing to help out with the security guarantees”.

He says that allies want to “make sure that Putin will never, ever again, try to attack Ukraine”, as he acknowledges that “means that you will have Europeans active in Ukraine, to make sure that that peace is kept that it’s sustainable, that it is enduring, lasting”.

He is then asked about Trump’s comments on Friday in which he said that he believes in article five, but the Baltics are in a “tough neighbourhood”.

Rutte, once again proving the uselessness of NATO because of their trepidation of the US, launched into a fierce defense of Trump, stating:

“I have spoken many times with President Trump. He’s a good friend. We’ve worked now for eight years together. Now for four years when he was president first time, and we stayed in touch when he was out of the president’s office.

Of course, we have now re-engaged very actively again, and he is totally committed, as he said many times, to article five to Nato.

So please, let’s stop gossiping about what the US might or might not do; they are in Nato, they are committed to Nato, they’re committed to article five, this is what they consistently say.”

Apparently Rutte, despite Trump's official statement that “Europe's problems do not concern him and that it's time for the US to withdraw from NATO,” is trying to keep a good face in a bad game.

#Ukraine #StandWithUkraineImage
Already former German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said that the meeting was “valuable” and was an opportunity to reaffirm Europe's support for Ukraine as a “victim of Russian aggression”.

He said it was “crucial for Ukraine to be able to negotiate its future” and to have a strong army.

To be honest, I would have liked more to see Friedrich Merz at the summit.

Наконец-то документальные подтверждения моих слов о секретариате ООН, работающем на россию.

Журналисты Bild слили переписку генсека ООН Гутерриша и главы МИД россии Лаврова.

В письме, якобы, Гутерриш предлагает Лаврову вернуться к зерновой сделке. Сделать так, чтобы она работала на победу россии в войне. Предложение состоит из четырех пунктов. Все соглашения между Секретариатом ООН и российской федерацией предполагают снятие санкций и/или выставление Украины агрессором.

Варианты:

Предложение 1. Гутерриш предлагает отменить финансовые санкции, введенные ЕС против "россельхозбанка" (РСХБ), который отключен от SWIFT. В частности, для обхода санкций генсек ООН предлагает использовать специально основанную дочернюю компанию российского банка под названием "RSHB Capital S.A." и подключить ее к системе SWIFT. Простыми словами: глава ООН хочет создать фейковый банк, который будет обходить санкции ЕС и США против российских банков.

Предложение 2. Гутерриш предлагает страховать российские суда, которые будут вывозить зерно, от украинских атак. Тем самым сразу ставя Украину в позицию агрессора. "Страховая компания совместного финансирования с ООН для российского экспорта продовольствия и удобрений может заработать с Lloyd's в течение 4-6 недель", - написано в письме. Глава ООН предлагает не только "страхование грузов для российского экспорта продовольствия и удобрений", но также страхование "каско и P&I". Страхование "каско" – это страхование судов, используемых для транспортировки, а "P&I" - это комплексное страхование ответственности за ущерб, причиненный третьим лицам.

Предложение 3. Разблокирование счетов российских производителей удобрений в Европе. Разблокирование российских денег, которые идут на убийство украинцев. В письме отмечается, что ООН "уже работает" над этим вопросом.

И, наконец, предложение 4. "Обеспечить эффективный доступ российских судов, перевозящих продукты питания и удобрения, в порты ЕС через быстрые портовые разрешения". А именно, "Организация Объединенных Наций готова изучить дальнейшие варианты облегчения доступа российских судов к портам ЕС, связанных с торговлей сельскохозяйственной продукцией, включая упрощенные процедуры выдачи соответствующих разрешений, в том числе перед выходом из российских портов".

Без мата выразить чувство не выйдет. Очень важно, что BILD обратился ко всем, кто упомянут в этом письме. SWIFT, Lloyd's и другие. Никто из них не опроверг содержимое предложений.

Теперь вопрос к МИДу Украины. Как по вашему, теперь это достаточно важный вопрос: выгнать россию из ООН? Или он всё ещё "не на часі"? Если не выгнать россию из ООН, мы ничего не сделаем с секретариатом ООН, который работает на врага. Мы не получим замороженные средства рф. Мы не сможем получить справедливый список военных преступников и ввести смертельные для российской экономики санкции. Если россия останется в ООН, с нее по итогу снимут санкции и вернут замороженные активы.

Обращаюсь к @DmytroKuleba: может пора начать работать? Наша инициативная группа все давно подготовила. Если сейчас мы не выгоним рф из ООН, ответственность будет на МИД Украины и всех, кто ничего не делал с незаконным нахождением россии в ООН!

During Xi's visit to $moscow, not a single contract was signed, such as the "Power of Siberia 2" that putin dreamed of. In addition, the agreement on economic cooperation between #russia and #China does not contain any accusations against the West.👇
#Stoprussia #UkrainerussiaWar
👆It is important to note putin didn't even dare to recite the point about geopolitical realities, which, according to russia, should have been taken into account in #China's peace plan. During his three-day visit to moscow, #Xi met separately with #Mishustin and Zyuganov, 👇
👆which may indicate that Xi is choosing putin's successor. After all, when Xi issued a ticket for putin to rule, he not only supported him, but showed the whole world that it is China that appoints the ruler of russia.👇

В ходе визита Си в москву не было подписано ни одного контракта, такого как "Сила Сибири 2", о котором путин мечтал. Кроме того, соглашение об экономическом сотрудничестве россии и Китая не содержит никаких обвинений в сторону Запада. 👇
#China #russiaInvadedUkraine
👆Важно отметить, что пункт про геополитические реалии, который по версии россии должен был учитываться в мирном плане Китая, #путин даже не осмелился произнести вслух. За три дня визита в москву, Си встретился отдельно с мишустиным и зюгановым, что может указывать на то, 👇
👆что Си выбирает приемника путина. Ведь когда Си выдал ярлык на правление путину, он не просто поддержал его, а показал всему миру, что именно #Китай назначает правителя россии.
Китай не будет продолжать проигрывать в экономическом плане👇
