- Abstract
The international conflict between Russia and Ukraine has been ongoing for more than a year. The invasion carried out by the Russian side has caused various losses in the form of loss of life and property as well as massive damage to public facilities in several regions of Ukraine. The International Armed Conflict (IAC) has brought Ukraine into extraordinary circumstances. Many of the international community also voiced a plea to stop the invasion by Russia. Not only that, the International Criminal Court (ICC) has also stated that the invasion by Russia violated the Rome Statute. In this case, Ukraine submitted itself to the jurisdiction of the ICC in the hope that the gross human rights violations that occurred in Ukraine could be reduced, especially after the Crimea conflict in 2014. This submission by Ukraine is like a double-edged sword, where the imposition of punishment on Russia is still possible; on the other hand, Ukraine itself can also be a perpetrator of gross human rights violations in its own territory.
