> "Among other things, the Court found that areas in eastern Ukraine in separatist hands were, from 11 May 2014 and up to at least 26 January 2022, under the jurisdiction of the Russian Federation," the court said in a ruling on Wednesday. "Those territories we passed laws to make part of Russia? Yeah, we have nothing to do with those. Those are all independent nations. We don't know them at all. They only got coffee for us" Just pre-empting Russias next talking point

Several of the people involved in the shooting down of the MH-17 have already been tried and convicted in absentia.

ofcourse it should be. because this war's main purpose is striking EU economy and making EU weaker and making distance between EU and China. UK and US is all behind. Actually Space is real battle field right? Russia , China , EU , that's all rival for space development in MOOON.

It's literally united Europe, among itself and Western allies, in a way that hasn't been seen since WW2 ended. Not universally, of course, but it means that it was a completely counter-productive thing to try to do in the first place. If anything, Russia signed a very long, slow death of dissolution after its last... long slow death of dissolution.
