THE VED NANDA CENTER \;INVITES YOU

The talk will explore the proposed EU ad hoc Court of Aggression\, designed to prosecute the crime of aggression\; the International Criminal Court’s indictment of Vladimir Putin\, albeit for a narrowly framed offense\; international initiatives to document Russian war crimes\; and efforts to build the capacity of Ukrainian prosecutors to handle complex war crimes cases domestically.

Professor Akerson has over 25 years of experience in international criminal law\, having served as a prosecuting trial attorney at the International Criminal Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and for Rwanda.
