The Department of information and press of the Russian foreign Ministry said the complaint of Kiev at the hearings in the international court of justice.
According to the Ministry, 3 to 7 June in the Hague will hold hearings on the case of "Ukraine against Russia" initiated by the Kiev in January 2017 as a result of international Convention on the battle against the financing of terrorism (1999) and international Convention on the elimination of all forms of racial discrimination (1965).
So, the complaint against Moscow, the return of the Crimea to Russia are not relevant to the international Convention on the elimination of all forms of racial discrimination, and the war in the Donbas is not regulated by the international Convention on the battle against the financing of terrorism, explained in the Department.
in 2017, Kiev was subjected to charges of Moscow, for example, in the illegal supply of weapons, as well as discrimination of the Crimean Tatars. International court of justice would not satisfy the requirement of Ukraine to establish temporary measures on the claim to the Russian Federation on the violation of the Convention on the financing of terrorism, but agreed to introduce temporary measures under the Convention on eliminating racial discrimination.
Russia has many times denied such accusations and pointed to the fact that not involved in the conflict in the Donbass, and the rights of minorities within the country are not infringed. The authorized capital of Russia in court, the head of the legal Department of the foreign Ministry Roman Kolodkin said that the charges by Ukraine the requirements are outside the jurisdiction of this international Institute.
