The Wheels of Justice Grind Slow But They Grind Exceedingly Fine

As January became February, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) delivered 
a pair of legal body blows to Ukraine and its Western backers. First, on 
January 31, it ruled on a case brought by Kiev against Russia in 2017, which 
accused Moscow of presiding over a campaign of “terrorism” in Donbas, including 
the July 2014 downing of MH17. It also charged that Russia racially 
discriminated against Ukrainian and Tatar residents of Crimea following its 
reunification with Moscow.

The ICJ summarily rejected most charges. Then, on February 2, the Court made a 
preliminary judgment in a case where Kiev accused Moscow of exploiting false 
claims of an ongoing genocide of Russians and Russian speakers in Donbas to 
justify its invasion. Ukraine further charged the Special Military Operation 
breached the Genocide Convention despite not itself constituting genocide. 
Almost unanimously, ICJ judges rejected these arguments.
