WorldIn World Court, Indian Judge Votes Against Russia For Invading UkraineMarch 17, 20221 minute read Kyiv dragged Moscow to the UN’s top court days after Russia’s attack on February 24 The UN’s top court on Wednesday ordered Russia to suspend its invasion of Ukraine, saying it was “profoundly concerned” by Moscow’s use of force. “The Russian Federation shall immediately suspend military operations that it commenced on 24 February on the territory of Ukraine,” pending the final decision in the case, presiding judge Joan Donoghue told the International Court of Justice, or ICJ. “The court is profoundly concerned about the use of force by the Russian Federation which raises very serious issues in international law,” Justice Donoghue told a hearing in The Hague. Kyiv dragged Moscow to the UN’s top court days after Russia’s attack on February 24. India’s judge at the ICJ, Justice Dalveer Bhandari, also voted against Russia. Justice Bhandari was nominated to the ICJ entirely on the support of the government and various missions over a period of time. Justice Bhandari voting against Russia, though an independent move based on his interpretation of the Russia-Ukraine issue, is different from what India’s official position has been in different international fora. India has abstained from voting on the Ukraine-Russia issue in the UN and instead called on both sides to focus on negotiations and end hostilities. Ukraine accuses Russia of illegally trying to justify its war by falsely alleging genocide in Ukraine’s Donetsk and Lugansk regions. Kyiv then asked the ICJ to take provisional measures ordering Russia to “immediately suspend the military operations.” Source : https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/in-world-court-indian-judge-justice-dalveer-bhandari-votes-against-russia-for-invading-ukraine-2827412 Total 0 Shares Share 0 Tweet 0 Pin it 0 Share 0 Share 0 Share 0 Share 0 Share 0 Previous Article World International Court of Justice orders Russia to suspend invasion of Ukraine March 17, 2022 View Post Next Article World In a first since border stand-off, Chinese foreign minister plans to visit India soon March 17, 2022 View Post You May Also Like View Post World Greece’s dark past is uncovered after 33 bodies are found in a civil war-era mass grave May 1, 2025 View Post World It’s A Carney-val: Canada PM’s Dance Moves In Victory Celebration Go Viral | Watch May 1, 2025 View Post World Kuwait frees 10 more Americans in the second release in as many months May 1, 2025 View Post World Ancient DNA confirms New Mexico tribe’s link to famed Chaco Canyon site May 1, 2025 View Post World Endangered axolotl release raises hopes for rare amphibian May 1, 2025 View Post World Nuclear v renewables: The coal mining town caught in Australia’s climate wars May 1, 2025 View Post World Princess Diana biographer wonders who’ll land Queen Elizabeth II book at Library Lunch, NYPL prez on leave May 1, 2025 View Post Trending World China sends dual message with national flag on disputed South China Sea reef, targeting rivals and citizens May 1, 2025
