Professor Sterio and Collaborators Enforce Justice for War Crimes in Ukraine through US Courts

Professor Milena Sterio’s co-authored article, Prosecution of Russian Corporations for War Crimes in Ukraine, (with Professor Michael Kelly, Creighton University Law School, Federica d’Alessandra, Oxford University, Dmytro Koval, Stanford University and Lydia Korostelova, Harvard University) has been accepted for publication by the Texas International Law Journal.

The article proposes a litigation framework that enables U.S. courts to enforce civil judgments issued by Ukrainian courts against Russian corporations implicated in war crimes committed in Ukraine. The ultimate objective is to utilize assets acquired through these judgments to aid Ukrainian reconstruction and recovery efforts.
