Immunity, Power, and War Crimes: Barriers to Prosecuting Russian Leadership | News in Depth
The discussion looks back at the Nuremberg trials and how the principles established are being used today to judge Russia’s actions in Ukraine. Matthew Day, Senior Online Editor at TVP World, notes that Nuremberg proved individuals can’t hide behind the state when committing atrocities. Later tribunals, like those for Yugoslavia or Rwanda, showed that justice can take years but can still eventually reach people who thought they’d gotten away with their crimes. When it comes to Russia, though, he’s pretty pessimistic—saying Putin and top officials are protected by immunity, political realities, and the ICC’s limited power. He also mentions how politics, especially from leaders like Donald Trump, can weaken support for the ICC and slow down any pursuit of justice. Day believes the only realistic near-term accountability might come from Ukraine itself capturing lower-level Russian officers or through covert actions.
