Hague Court's Ruling Takes Into Account Kiev's Attempt to Prove Right to Crimea - Moscow

MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The decision by the Hague-based Permanent Court of Arbitration takes into consideration that Ukraine’s maritime lawsuit against Russia is an attempt to prove Kiev’s nonexistent sovereignty over the Crimean Peninsula, the Russian Foreign Ministry said on Saturday.

The ministry added that the court’s decisions regarding Russia’s other objections will be analyzed and taken into consideration while preparing a memorandum due on 20 August 2021.

In September 2016, Kiev filed a lawsuit against Moscow regarding the coastal state rights in the Black Sea, Sea of Azov and Kerch Strait. On Friday, the court confirmed its jurisdiction over the case, while also stating it will not look into Ukraine’s claims regarding its rights in the Crimean coastal waters.
