President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting with Secretary General of the Council of Europe Alain Berset, during which the parties discussed the need to create a special tribunal for Russia's crime of aggression.
"Thank you for the support of Ukraine from the Council of Europe. We discussed the need to create a special tribunal for the crime of aggression. It is important to bring Russian war criminals to justice," Zelenskyy said in a Telegram channel on Wednesday.
