Statements

With President Donald Trump set to initiate some form of peace negotiations on Ukraine this year, the coalition of human rights organisations, led by the Nobel Peace Prize Laureates, Centre For Civil Liberties (Ukraine) and Memorial (Russia) are launching the PEOPLE FIRST! campaign.

Bills No. 11538 and No. 11539 will block the investigation of international crimes in Ukraine and should not be adopted.

We will manage to survive only if our resistance to this sinister Russian gloom remains nationwide.

Representing a wide community of non-government organizations and initiatives that are signatories to the Memorandum of NGOs of Ukraine on Common Guiding Principles Regarding Responsibility for International Crimes Committed in Ukraine, we reached a common agreement on the following.

In a statement published on 18 March 2023, the Tribunal for Putin coalition welcomes the warrant issued by the International Criminal Court for the arrest of the President of Russia Vladimir Putin and of Maria Lvova-Belova, the Commissioner for Children’s Rights. T4P calls on the governments of the world to support and facilitate this decision and stresses the necessity for Ukraine to ratify the Rome Statute.

It is essential to conduct effective investigations into all war crimes, crimes against humanity and acts of genocide committed in Ukraine, says the Tribunal for Putin (T4P) coalition.

The world community must reject Russia’s attempts to legitimise its “offshore” (extra-territorial) jurisdictions in occupied Ukraine, thereby evading responsibility for the war crimes and crimes against humanity it is committing there.

Amnesty International's statement on violations of international humanitarian law by Ukrainе's armed forces is insufficiently documented. T4P does not support the public campaign against AI, however.
