V4 document, investigate Russian war crimes, but not all willing to prosecute in their courts

While conversation on Russia-Ukraine war shifts to discussion of concession Ukraine should or should not make to establish some sort of peace, the count of alleged Russian war crimes keeps growing. Czechia, Slovakia, and Poland are involved in documenting war crimes cases and sharing their findings with international courts, but not all are willing to prosecute under universal jurisdiction in their countries. Ukraine is dealing both with the legal system’s unpreparedness to process over 150,000 cases and the challenge of doing all that during war.

Slovakia is one of the EU’s most vulnerable countries to disinformation, much of which is now being amplified even by its own government. Experts warn that instead of countering Russian propaganda, Slovakia’s leadership is using it as a political tool to gain and maintain power.

With shifting geopolitical tides and figures like Donald Trump advocating for a swift end to the war, the future of Ukrainian refugees remains unclear. Many continue to reside in Poland, Slovakia, and Czechia, and Kyiv will face a hard challenge of facilitating their return — an issue crucial for the country’s post-war recovery.
