THE HAGUE: Could Russian President Vladimir Putin one day stand in the dock in The Hague? The prospect seemed to move closer after Germany backed a special court for the invasion of Ukraine. G
German Foreign Minister Anna Baerbock called on Monday for a tribunal to get around the fact that the International Criminal Court cannot prosecute Russia for the"leadership" crime of aggression.
But while changes to the ICC's governing Rome Statute gave it powers to prosecute aggression from 2018, it still cannot do so for non-member states. The court could"derive its jurisdiction from Ukrainian criminal law" but have international prosecutors and judges and foreign funding, she said. At the same time, Baerbock proposed changing the ICC's rules in the long term so that it can prosecute non-member states for aggression.A special tribunal would target Russia's civilian and military leadership for ordering and overseeing the invasion of Ukraine, Baerbock said., Baerbock said it was"important that the Russian leadership cannot claim immunity".
