In kyiv, we salute a “historic day”. The foreign ministers of 36 member countries of the Council of Europe, mostly European, and the European Union have committed to creating a special tribunal to judge the crimes of aggression against Ukraine. A first since the trials of Nuremberg (1945-1946) and Tokyo (1948), set up after the Second World War. Concretely, what will be the role of this future tribunal and how will it function? Is funding for this project guaranteed?
