Special Tribunal for Russia: Agreement May Be Signed Soon.

The agreement to establish a special tribunal for the crime of aggression may be signed on May 9 in Kyiv. This was reported by MP Maria Mezentseva-Fedorenko. She noted that political will is needed to sign the document.

'The documents are ready, the Council of Europe is also ready. We are counting on the decision of the President of Ukraine,' the MP emphasized.

Mezentseva-Fedorenko reminded that the arrival of the leaders of partner countries in Kyiv is expected on May 9 at the invitation of the President, the government of Ukraine, and the Verkhovna Rada.

'I am not in a position to announce that an agreement will definitely be signed on the 9th, as I am not the one signing it. But I am confident that the President is not disappointed with our work, which has been done in a very short Time. Such agreements take years to prepare. However, it seems to me that the unity of the Secretary General of the Council of Europe, the entire organization, and all those who are not so public but work behind the scenes has allowed us to prepare this agreement for signing,' the politician added.
