Ukraine: War Crimes
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether he has had recent discussions with (a) Yale University Humanitarian Research Lab, (b) Europol, (c) other international accountability bodies, (d) the International Criminal Court and (e) Ukrainian prosecutors on the (i) preservation and (ii) accessibility of data collected by that Lab.
Answered by Stephen Doughty
The UK is committed to securing accountability for those responsible for atrocity crimes. For example, the International Criminal Court's investigation into the situation in Ukraine is ongoing, with six arrest warrants already issued for current or former senior Russian officials. The data that the Yale Humanitarian Research Lab provided to Ukraine was part of a wider accountability project, a small part of which was dedicated to the tracking of forcibly deported children. The Office of the Prosecutor General has confirmed that Yale's data on deported children has been transferred to the Ukrainian government.
