Australia will support Ukraine’s case against Russia along with a cohort of 31 other countries at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on Wednesday.

Delivered by Australian Solicitor-General Stephen Donaghue, the intervention will contend for the top United Nations court to hear the case under its jurisdiction, which argues the 2022 invasion by Russia was an “illegal and immoral” act.
