Russia's genocidal policy against the Ukrainian people will necessarily have legal consequences.

President Zelensky said it in his address, Ukrinform reports.

"Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court Karim Khan is visiting our country. This is an institution and an individual that undoubtedly plays a historical role in bringing Russian criminals to justice. Russia's genocidal policy against our people will necessarily have inevitable legal consequences for all those who conceived, approved and implemented such a policy," the president said.

He stressed that we are talking not only about the perpetrators but also about the highest political and military leadership of the terrorist state.

"It is clear that this is not an easy job. But to respond to Russian crimes in the context of this aggression precisely in the plane of the rule of law and precisely by the force of the International Court of justice is what will be one of the guarantees for the long–term future security of both Ukrainians and other peoples. We will ensure this," Zelensky added.
