“Prosecutor Khan carefully examines all crime scenes and asks important professional questions to our prosecutors. On the front of justice, we are side by side with him: in an independent investigation by the ICC Prosecutor’s Office, the Ukrainian prosecutor’s office is actively assisting The Hague.
