Ukraine Can Make Russia Pay For This War In International Courts—Eventually

A legal war between Ukraine and Russia is raging in international courts

DONETSK, UKRAINE - FEBRUARY 17: A view from the shelled kindergarten in eastern Ukraine on February 17, 2022.

The ICC has jurisdiction to arrest and try war criminals, but investigations take years or even decades. The availability of smartphones and technology that canto the standards of international courts may speed justice for Ukraine. Still, we are unlikely to see Putin stand trial in the ICC for many years.
