UN court largely dismisses Ukraine's 2017 lawsuit against Russia. Evidence from Ukraine against Russia is not enough for The Hague.

Ukraine had already sued Russia in the Court of Justice in 2017, long before the Russian invasion two years ago. According to Ukraine, Russia's aggression began in 2014 in Donbass and on the Ukrainian Black Sea peninsula of Crimea, which Russia continues to annex to this day. The current verdict is a defeat for Ukraine, which had hoped to gain support for further calls for more sanctions.
