He stated this in his address to the attendees of the Russian War Crimes exhibition, which is taking place in Davos as part of the World Economic Forum, Ukrinform reports with reference the president’s press service.
“Russia must be brought to justice for every burned Ukrainian city and village. For every destroyed life. For every Ukrainian family killed by Russian missiles, bombs and mines. We must bring back justice. We can bring back justice. We must punish evil,” Zelensky said.
He added that the International Criminal Court has the jurisdiction to prosecute Russian war criminals. The International Tribunal for the Crime of Aggression of Russia against Ukraine will have the jurisdiction to bring to justice the highest officials of the Russian politics and army who launched this war of aggression.
“The special compensation mechanism will have the power to compensate Ukraine and every person affected by Russian aggression for the damage done by Russia. Compensation should be covered by Russia's assets and all those associated with it. This terrorist war of Russia against Ukraine should be the last such war. Never again should any other state step on such a path of terror. The revenge will not do it. That is why justice is needed,” Zelensky said.
As reported, the World Economic Forum (WEF) is holding its annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland, on January 16–20.
Previously, the Russian War Crimes exhibition was presented in Brussels, as well as in New York and London.
