    Russian Aggression and Individual Reparations: Victims' Needs and Ways to Address Them Under International Law
    (2023) Busol, Kateryna
    This article analyzes Ukraine’s progress in ensuring prosecution for breach of laws and customs of war and international crimes committed during russian aggression. A special prism of the research is the dynamics of Ukraine’s success in organizing reparations programs to support the victims. First, detailed key obligations of Ukraine and russia and the requirements of international law to provide effective remedies to victims, in particular, in the context of transitional justice, are disclosed. The gradual expansion of the focus of the Ukrainian authorities and the human rights community on criminal justice to more comprehensive support for different groups of victims is considered. Ukraine needs to urgently develop the whole spectrum of reparation measures without focusing only on compensation. This publication also explains why more reparations should be provided through a simplified administrative procedure rather than a judicial one, why Ukraine should provide urgent interim reparations as soon as possible, and why the voice of victims and a sensitive gender prism are key at all stages of these processes.

    Ukraine's Pursuit of Justice Hinders Peace
    (Chatham House, 2023) Busol, Kateryna
    Many believe that for Ukraine to insist on judicial redress is unrealistic and should not be a precondition of a peace settlement. However, quite apart from the moral imperative, the reality is that peace will not hold unless justice – in the form of trials and reparations – is served.

    When the Head of State Makes Rape Jokes, His Troops Rape on the Ground: Conflict-Related Sexual Violence in Russia’s Aggression against Ukraine
    (2023) Busol, Kateryna
    In early February 2022, President Macron flew to Moscow, in yet another attempt to convince Russia to de-escalate its looming all-out offensive on Ukraine. After the lengthy negotiations – that became infamous for the enormously long table, which in itself could give rise to various Freudian interpretations – President Putin and President Macron proceeded to a joint press-conference. One of the issues that unsurprisingly emerged in the discussion were the Minsk Agreements. These controversial arrangements advocated by Russia eroded its role in the conflict in Ukraine’s eastern Donbas region since 20142 and were perceived as "peace settlements" anywhere but in Ukraine. At the press conference, Vladimir Putin once again emphasized that Kyiv must implement the agreements. However, the Russian President voiced the demand in a rather unconventional form – using sexist wording, which alluded to rape: "My beauty, it’s your duty."
