The next ordinary meeting of the Subcommittee on Human Rights will take place on Tuesday 19 March from 09.00 - 12.30 and 14.30 - 18.30 in meeting room Spinelli 3G2.
The debate follows a DROI visit to Ukraine held in October 2023, where DROI Members met with victims, witnessed the scale of destruction in former occupied areas in Chernihiv and Yahidne and exchanged with authorities on accountability gaps to bring perpetrators accountable and provide reparation and redress to the victims.
In line with the European Parliament call for accountability and justice, the two prominent speakers - Mr Philippe Sands, Professor of the Public Understanding of Law at UCL and Mr Anton Korynevych, Ambassador-at-large of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine - will update the audience on the progress for the creation of an international tribunal, including the issue of proceeding in absentia and the question of immunity.
