Already transmitted thousands of pages of documents, documentary evidence of crimes of the Russian Federation in the Donbas and in the Crimea ", - quotes the TV channel" 112 Ukraine "speech by Grytsak.

In January 2017, Kiev filed a lawsuit against the Russian Federation in the International Court of Justice in The Hague on charges of violating two conventions: the fight against the financing of terrorism and the elimination of all forms of racial discrimination.

The court satisfied one claim of Kiev, ruling that Russia "should refrain" from restrictions on "the ability of Crimean Tatars to save their institutions of power" and guarantee the possibility of training in Ukrainian.

Kiev authorities and Western countries accuse Russia of interfering in Ukraine's affairs and participation in the armed conflict in Donbass. Moscow denies all such accusations, stressing that it is not a side of intra-Ukrainian interests and is interested in the neighboring country overcoming the political and economic crisis.
