For Robert Gelli, “international justice is not intended to intervene at this stage”
The Secretary of State for Justice mentioned the Russian-Ukrainian conflict in the preamble to his interview with Monaco Info.
Asked about the power of international justice in the face of the crisis that has shaken Ukraine since the Russian invasion on Thursday 24 February, Robert Gelli, Secretary of State for Justice, spoke the same evening at the microphone of Monaco Info : “ international justice has no vocation to intervene at this stage. I think that’s not the most important topic today. The most important subject is that governments, states and the United Nations take action or take action or engage in all possible and imaginable discussions. But justice does not have to intervene at this stage. »
With regard more specifically to relations between the Principality and the two countries marked by the conflict, Robert Gelli adds: “ It’s true that with Russia as with Ukraine, here in Monaco, we have quite significant and regular justice-to-justice relations and it is obvious that situations such as the one we are experiencing can have an impact on the normal functioning of international cooperation. »
The Secretary of State for Justice then returned to his recent trip to Dubai to learn about the local judicial authorities, the fight against money laundering and the financing of terrorism, the importance of the digital transition in the field of justice and the resumption of activity of the Institute for training in legal professions.
