Russia has a weak defence. My guess is Russia will lose this case.
The civilised world objects to Putin's fascist imperialist and genocidal ambitions.
Putler must be in the hague with lavrovπ€‘
RUSSIA IS THE ONLY RESPONSIBLE, GUILTY AS CHARGED AND THATS THE BOTTOM LINE. RUSSIA MUST MUST LOOSE IT'S WRIGHT TO SECURITY COUNCIL VETO.
UN is a prejudiced and corrupt puppet of the west
Well they f#%&^#g would wouldn't they ????
Victory will be Ukraines. Go home ruSSuan fascists.
Ukraine is a grainocide state, just ask poland
The truth comes out. Russia is the only country that committed genocide in this hearing.
hopefully a few more years will start wearing down russia. Good luck, we all need it.
Only the weak is punished by laws.
Exactly Putin dictator but why say Russia .
Why bother. It is always unfair to Russia. Even Ukrainian lie many times
All the $ billion could have gone to help cure cancer⦠instead we have grown one out of Ukraine that destroying the world.
Russia well known for many years for their brutality, violating rights of citizens, etc.
therefore is very difficult russia accept any international law. Russia recognises only their law and believe whatever they do to other countries is legal. Is very difficult to communicate with Russia and anytime any invation can occur from now on. Russia does not belive on any laws or UN or above as Russia believe is above of any law that exist. It's regretable to deal with such a country.
Stop the war ruzzia and leave Ukraine alone. Ukraine is NOT ruzzia.
I put money on Russia being proven guilty with the evidence provided in the same nature they have commited war crimes in the past with the defence that its a kangaroo court despite everyone clearly understanding that Putin is a coward and a liar.
Russian leadership is definitely guilty of genocide. There is no denying that fact.
Russia has attacked , invaded and occupied just about every single one of its neighboring nations. I'm sure that's all just a coincidence, NOT, they are bullies
Ukrainian claims of Russia trying to Genocide them is hilarious. π My country of Canada just hosted Zelensky, we had a literal SS veteran there for the oacasion. π Putin was right all along. Ukraine are fascists.
not genocide!
bullshit
The Russian government believes Russians are the Superior Race. Anything that opposes it, Russia ignores them. It is their belief that Russia has to win, however that is achieved.
Dont forget Bucha! Slava Ukraine!
God Bless Russia. The US and Ukraine need to be in jail forever.
Russia will continue to commite war crimes againts Ukrainian civillians and try to denigh it
LIES LIES LIES GO BACK TO YOUR CAVE TROLL
Russia cannot commit genocide and war crimes with impunity. Russia is downgrading the United Nations, breaking international law and provoking International community. God bless Ukraine. β€β€β€ππππ
If Russia wins, there will be more invasions, possibly by any bigger country against a smaller country, and the Court will be useless throughout history. The future of "territorial sovereignty" is at stake. World order is at stake. Not sure why this case is still being brought to the Court since Russia and China repeatedly said that they don't give credibility to the Court because it is a manipulation of America and the West.
Genocide is a Trademark of the Soviet Satanic Union.
Ethnic operations
Main articles: Flight of Poles from the USSR, Deportations of the Ingrian Finns, Deportation of Chinese in the Soviet Union, Deportation of Koreans in the Soviet Union, and Deportation of the Soviet Greeks
During the 1930s, categorisation of so-called enemies of the people shifted from the usual MarxistβLeninist, class-based terms, such as kulak, to ethnic-based ones. The partial removal of potentially trouble-making ethnic groups was a technique used consistently by Joseph Stalin during his government; between 1935 and 1938 alone, at least ten different nationalities were deported. Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union led to a massive escalation in Soviet ethnic cleansing.
The Deportation of Koreans in the Soviet Union, originally conceived in 1926, initiated in 1930, and carried through in 1937, was the first mass transfer of an entire nationality in the Soviet Union. Almost the entire Soviet population of ethnic Koreans (171,781 persons) were forcibly moved from the Russian Far East to unpopulated areas of the Kazakh SSR and the Uzbek SSR in October 1937.
Looking at the entire period of Stalin's rule, one can list: Poles (1939β1941 and 1944β1945), Kola Norwegians (1940β1942), Romanians (1941 and 1944β1953), Estonians, Latvians and Lithuanians (1941 and 1945β1949), Volga Germans (1941β1945), Ingrian Finns (1929β1931 and 1935β1939), Finnish people in Karelia (1940β1941, 1944), Crimean Tatars, Crimean Greeks (1944) and Caucasus Greeks (1949β50), Kalmyks, Balkars, Italians of Crimea, Karachays, Meskhetian Turks, Karapapaks, Far East Koreans (1937), Chechens and Ingushs (1944). Shortly before, during and immediately after World War II, Stalin conducted a series of deportations on a huge scale which profoundly affected the ethnic map of the Soviet Union. It is estimated that between 1941 and 1949 nearly 3.3 million were deported to Siberia and the Central Asian republics.[28] By some estimates, up to 43% of the resettled population died of diseases and malnutrition.
Population transfer in the Soviet Union
From 1930 to 1952, the government of the Soviet Union, on the orders of Soviet leader Joseph Stalin under the direction of the NKVD official Lavrentiy Beria, forcibly transferred populations of various groups. These actions may be classified into the following broad categories: deportations of "anti-Soviet" categories of population (often classified as "enemies of the people"), deportations of entire nationalities, labor force transfer, and organized migrations in opposite directions to fill ethnically cleansed territories. Dekulakization marked the first time that an entire class was deported, whereas the deportation of Soviet Koreans in 1937 marked the precedent of a specific ethnic deportation of an entire nationality.
In most cases, their destinations were underpopulated remote areas (see Forced settlements in the Soviet Union). This includes deportations to the Soviet Union of non-Soviet citizens from countries outside the USSR. It has been estimated that, in their entirety, internal forced migrations affected at least 6 million people.[6][10][11][12] Of this total, 1.8 million kulaks were deported in 1930β31, 1.0 million peasants and ethnic minorities in 1932β39, whereas about 3.5 million ethnic minorities were further resettled during 1940β52.
Soviet archives documented 390,000 deaths during kulak forced resettlement and up to 400,000 deaths of persons deported to forced settlements during the 1940s; however, Nicolas Werth places overall deaths closer to some 1 to 1.5 million perishing as a result of the deportations.
Contemporary historians classify these deportations as a crime against humanity and ethnic persecution. Two of these cases with the highest mortality rates, the deportation of the Crimean Tatars and the deportation of the Chechens and Ingush, were recognized as genocides by Ukraine, three other countries, and the European Parliament respectively. On 26 April 1991 the Supreme Soviet of the Russian Socialist Federal Soviet Republic, under its chairman Boris Yeltsin, passed the law On the Rehabilitation of Repressed Peoples with Article 2 denouncing all mass deportations as "Stalin's policy of defamation and genocide."
The Soviet Union also practiced deportations in occupied territories, with over 50,000 perishing from the Baltic States and 300,000 to 360,000 perishing during the expulsion of Germans from Eastern Europe due to Soviet deportation, massacres, and internment and labour camps.

The big question her is that? if and if the court will decide and promulgate its resolution regarding this case who will enforce the resolution and punish RUSSIA? just like what happen to SOUTH CHINA SEA, when the court decided and promulgate its resolution in favor to the PHILIPPINES against CHINA on the case of who has the rights over the (KGI) KALAYAAN GROUP OF ISLAND in SOUTH CHINA SEA. (UNCLOS COVENTION)
NATO is a terrorist organization sponsored by the US. NATO is exploiting Ukraine to attack Russia. The US has never acted in good faith, has lied, and is responsible for in excess of 200 military interventions/regime changes in recent years. The Russians have offered negotiations in the past, but the west has never acted in good faith. Zelensky applauds Nazism with the Turd in Canada, and Nazism prevails in Ukraine. Victory is coming to Russia. God will intervene for the just.
Like USA said β¦ itβs a colateral damage remember that???
Looking forward to an explanation the establishment of the jurisdiction of the court in this matter, what can such the court do to punish Ruzzia for an unlawful invasion? Does it have teeth?
The UN needs to grow a pair and kick Russia out of the door.
And whats the point for all this ?
Would we see a officer, commander, or Putin arrested?
Can we have some moreoney NOW !!THATS ALL THE UKRAINIAN LEADERS CARE ABOUT AND NOT THEIR PEOPLE
This is why UN is a failure as Russia has no right to comment it is the criminal terrorist state all diplomatic rights need to be removed from Russia until it withdraws from Ukraine all other occupied territory and returns all displaced persons.
