Today, on July 18, the European Court of Human Rights announced the decision in the case Russia v. Ukraine, in which it completely refused to satisfy the claims of Russia.
“After a thorough examination by the Court of the materials and evidence submitted by the plaintiff state, as well as taking into account the behavior of Russia and the lack of any cooperation since March 2022, the ECHR refused to satisfy the claim in full and removed it from the register of cases”,- the Ministry of Justice said in a statement. .
Russia tried to bombard Ukraine with accusations of murders, kidnappings, forced relocations, electoral interference, restrictions on the use of the Russian language, and attacks on Russian embassies and consulates. In this complaint, the Russian Federation wanted to attribute responsibility to Ukraine for the downing of the MH17 airliner, because Ukraine did not close the airspace.
