Another outcome of the war, which Ursula von der Leyen considers predetermined, is the prosecution of those responsible for committing war crimes in the occupied territories of Ukraine.

When asked by a journalist about whether she believes in victory, von der Leyen answered in the affirmative: “Ukraine can win the war. Ukraine’s courage and resilience are impressive.”

Another outcome of the war, which Ursula von der Leyen considers predetermined, is the prosecution of those responsible for committing war crimes in the occupied territories of Ukraine, including Putin.
“I firmly believe that the perpetrators will be punished by an international court for the atrocities they have committed. We have formed an investigative team from Ukraine to provide information to the International Court of Justice. There is a lot of evidence of crimes committed by Russian soldiers. But not only the direct perpetrators must be held accountable, but also those responsible for starting this war, which cost the lives of thousands of civilians,” the President of the European Commission said.
“Putin is responsible for this war, he ordered the invasion and is pulling all the strings,” she stressed.
Recall that the European Union allocates more 50 million euros of humanitarian funding in support of the peopleaffected by the war of Russia against Ukraine.
