Accountability Mechanisms for War Crimes Committed in Ukraine
PILPG collaborated with pro bono law firm partner Shearman and Sterling to create an Accountability Mechanisms for War Crimes Committed in Ukraine Legal Memorandum. This Memorandum considers three broad categories of tribunals with potential jurisdiction for prosecuting atrocity crimes in Ukraine committed during the current stage of war that Russia has been waging against Ukraine.
The Memorandum analyzes the accessibility of various jurisdictions, across the international and domestic legal spectrum, and evaluates the viability of potential claims, considering the prevailing legal framework of each forum.
