The Verkhovna Rada recognised Russia’s genocide in Ukraine. A number of countries around the world made similar statements. The ongoing process of political and legal qualification of the actions of the Russian invaders has specifics and features, as well as strategic and tactical consequences for Ukraine and the rest of the world.
On 14 April, the Verkhovna Rada adopted a Resolution on Russia’s genocide in Ukraine. The document also contains a corresponding appeal to international institutions and parliaments of the world. This is an important act that has set in motion the process of international political-diplomatic and legal definition of crimes committed by Russian forces on the Ukrainian territory during its military aggression starting on 24 February 2022.
