Members of the ILA Committee on the Use of Force, in which Dr. Beham is a representative of the ILA Austrian Branch, have issued a statement available in almost 30 languages assessing the events in Ukraine from an international law perspective: https://www.justsecurity.org/80454/statement-by-members-of-the-international-law-association-committee-on-the-use-of-force/ Apart from recognising the violation of international law by Russia, it emphasises the clear obligations of the international community in relation to peremptory norms of international law, namely to cooperate to bring the aggression to an end through lawful means, not to recognise as lawful any situation it creates, or render any aid or assistance in maintaining the situation (which may consist in economic support of Russia).

Consultation meetings with Professor Dederer during the summer semester 2020 are possible on Tuesday from  1 to 2 p.m. However, due to the current situation, they can only be realized via telephone or ZOOM. Please make an appointment in advance.
