The decision of the United Nations International Court of Justice on Russia is satisfactory for Ukraine, although not all the requirements of Kiev were satisfied.

This was stated in the commentary to the "Observer" by the lawyer Mikhail Soldatenko.

"Part of the requirements were still satisfied. In addition, the court established preliminary jurisdiction for both conventions, which is a very good foundation for the further process. Of course, there are also negative aspects. In particular, the court recognized as improbable the arguments of Ukraine under the convention on the financing of terrorism. But it is necessary to understand the nature of this stage of consideration of the case, "said Soldatenko.

According to him, this stage is preliminary, and so far the court does not delve deeply into the evidence of the parties.

"The main legal confrontation will unfold in subsequent meetings. And then you can talk about victory or defeat, "- concluded the lawyer.

As reported by the "Observer", April 19, the International Court of Justice announced several decisions in the case on the suit of Ukraine against Russia. Thus, the court recognized prima facie jurisdiction for the consideration of this case.

In addition, the court stated that Ukraine did not provide sufficient evidence of Russia's financing of terrorism. At the same time, the International Court of the United Nations has agreed to the introduction of measures on the suit of Ukraine against the Russian Federation regarding the protection of national minorities in the Crimea.

Also, the court ordered Ukraine and Russia to fully implement all provisions of the agreements reached in Minsk.
