Belarusian MPs hit back at European Parliament’s resolution on tribunal for Belarus, Russia
January 26, BPN. The House of Representatives’ foreign affairs committee has criticized the European Parliament’s January 19 resolution that called for an international tribunal to hold the Russian and Belarusian leaders accountable for the aggression against Ukraine.
The committee said in a statement that the resolution “has no legal force and is propagandistic in nature.”
“Any attempts of the European Parliament to create some kind of tribunal for aggression against Ukraine bypassing the UN Security Council are illegitimate. We believe that the European Parliament should abandon its bellicose and crude rhetoric and pay attention to the serious corruption cases unfolding in Brussels,” the statement reads.
