Waiting for Justice: Delays Plague Ukrainian Courts

Waiting for Justice: Delays and Discrimination in Ukrainian Courts June 10th, 2025 marked another day of delays and frustrations within the Ukrainian judicial system. A recent video posted online by lawyer, primus_partners, shines a light on this persistent problem. The video shows the lawyer and client spending nearly two hours waiting in a courtroom in an unnamed Ukrainian city. The lawyer explains, "The judicial system is severely overloaded, and this causes discrimination. If a lawyer is late, nobody waits, but if a prosecutor or investigator is late, everyone is forced to wait." This highlights the unequal treatment experienced by those navigating the legal process. The video's comments section further underscores the issue with comments like, "What kind of case is this?" and "This is discrimination." The video serves as a stark reminder of the challenges faced by those seeking justice in Ukraine and underscores the need for systemic reform to ensure fairness and efficiency within the courts. The video's popularity, with over 3,600 views in a short time, indicates a significant public interest in this issue.
