 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

This resolution calls on the United States to use its voice and vote in international institutions to support the creation of a special international criminal tribunal to hold Russian leaders who led and sanctioned aggression in Ukraine accountable. The resolution also states its expectations that such a tribunal would be formed pursuant to a United Nations General Assembly resolution and would be complementary to the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court.
