As Russia's military invasion continues, the Ministry of Justice has begun to send prosecutors to the ICC = International Criminal Court, which has announced that it will begin investigating suspected "war crimes" in Ukraine.

The ICC-International Criminal Court in The Hague, Netherlands, announced last month that it would begin investigating alleged "war crimes" and "crimes against humanity" in Ukraine over a military invasion of Ukraine.



Under these circumstances, the Ministry of Justice has begun coordinating to send a prosecutor to the International Criminal Court soon.



Regarding the International Criminal Court, Prime Minister Kishida has indicated at a press conference last week that he will support the investigation by paying the contribution to the ICC ahead of schedule, and the Ministry of Justice has sent a prosecutor. For the time being, I would like to understand the needs of support.
