“Filtration” of the population in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine as an instrument of genocide

Анотація

The relevance of this study stems from the need to investigate the “filtration” structure introduced by the occupation authorities, which contains violations of international humanitarian law. The purpose of this study was to investigate the conceptual and organisational foundations of the “filtration” system through the lens of international human rights law. Considering the subject matter and the purpose of this study, a range of scientific methods was employed, including terminological, systemic and structural, formal and logical, which helped to investigate the subject matter and summarise the analysis findings. The study covered the testimonies of victims about the crimes committed against them while passing through the filtration labyrinth. The study outlined the problematic issues of proving crimes committed on the territory of Ukraine, considering the practice of European and international court decisions on violations of civilian rights through the lens of international humanitarian law related to armed conflict. The study concluded that the “filtration” of the Ukrainian population in the temporarily occupied territories is a gross violation of human rights and contradicts the principles of democracy, freedom, and self-determination. Targeted sanctions against those responsible for these violations are crucial to hold them accountable for their actions. The study concluded that stopping the practice of “filtration” and facilitating the restoration of the rights and freedoms of the Ukrainian population in the temporarily occupied territories is possible only through diplomatic efforts and international cooperation. The main provisions of this study will encourage further investigations of crimes with the recording of testimonies and evidence, as well as contribute to the development of sound policies, mechanisms of international accountability, and prevention of potential violations in the interests of justice and protection of civilians
