- Title
NEGOTIATING ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE IN UKRAINE.
- Authors
Williams, Paul R.; Beta, Sindija
- Abstract
This Article examines the dynamics of negotiating environmental justice in Ukraine amid pressure from certain international actors for an Amnesty-Based Peace in Ukraine. While it is currently unclear how Russia's war in Ukraine will end, it is likely that there will be significant discussion around forms of justice, including how to address the grave environmental damage Russia has caused in Ukraine. This Article looks at previous precedents of Amnesty-Based Peace in Angola, Haiti, and Uganda and decisions and commentaries by international actors to argue that appeasement has not fostered durable peace and is generally disfavored by judicial and non-judicial bodies. Additionally, the infrastructure Ukraine and the international community have built to hold those accountable for atrocity crimes, including environmental crimes, in Ukraine significantly hinders Russia's hopes to persuade Ukraine to abolish its plans for accountability.
