Moscow, 17/3The Kremlin on Thursday rejected an order by the UN’s top court for Russia to suspend the military offensive in Ukraine, a day after judges in The Hague announced their ruling.

“We cannot take this decision into account,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, adding that both parties—Russia and Ukraine—had to agree for the ruling to be implemented. “No consent can be obtained in this case,” Peskov said.
