Thirty-six countries approve creation of special tribunal for Ukraine

Thirty-four Council of Europe member states, along with Australia, Costa Rica and the EU as an institution, said Friday they would join a future special tribunal for Ukraine tasked with prosecuting Russia over its invasion of the country.

"The time for Russia to be held to account for its aggression is fast approaching," said Alain Berset, the secretary general of the Council of Europe, which acts as a guardian of human rights and democracy across the continent.

Russia was expelled from the Council of Europe -- which is separate from the European Union -- in 2022, following its invasion of Ukraine.
