MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Since 2014, Ukraine has filed four lawsuits against Russia to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR). Earlier this month, the ECHR received the fourth lawsuit filed by the Ukrainian authorities against Russia related to Crimea and the Ukrainian crisis.
"We are at the beginning of a very hard path to combat a series of lawsuits against the Russian Federation and its institutions, largely inspired by the United States, or by the US legal system," Ryabkov told reporters.
Last week, Kiev filed a lawsuit against Russia with the World Trade Organization (WTO) over limits on car and railroad switch exports.
In July, the Ukrainian Justice Ministry said the ECHR had received 500 lawsuits from Ukrainian residents over rights violations during imaginary "Russia's aggression."
