Guatemala has become the first Latin American country to support the creation of a Special Tribunal on Russian war crimes, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba wrote on Twitter on Feb. 25 after meeting with his Guatemalan counterpart Mario Adolfo Bucaro Flores. 

“In New York, I was glad to meet the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Guatemala, Mario Adolfo Bucaro Flores. Guatemala is our loyal friend,” Kuleba wrote.

He added that during the meeting the parties discussed joint efforts to bring Russia to justice.

“Guatemala will become the first Latin American country to join the Main Group for the establishment of the Special Tribunal for crimes of aggression against Ukraine,” noted Kuleba.

On Jan. 19, the European Parliament adopted a resolution in support of the creation of an international tribunal to bring to justice those guilty of the crime of aggression against Ukraine.

A meeting of the Main Group on the creation of a special tribunal to investigate the crime of aggression against Ukraine was held in Prague on Jan. 26. Representatives of 20 countries took part.

Earlier, Kuleba said that the special tribunal was in fact the only possible way to hold Russia’s highest political and military leadership accountable for the crime of aggression against Ukraine.
