MOSCOW, March 31. /TASS/. Moscow has collected considerable evidence of developments in Ukraine, so a commission looking into human rights violations allegedly committed during Russia’s special military operation will have to do thorough work, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Thursday.

On March 4, the United Nations Human Rights Council supported the creation of such a commission that will be active for a year. On March 30, three experts were appointed, a Norwegian representative will head the commission.

"The commission will have to do hard work, particularly because we have a lot of evidence. This evidence is being carefully collected and verified, and it will certainly be used," Peskov said, when asked about the Kremlin’s view of the move.

The UN Human Rights Council, an intergovernmental body created in 2006, replaced the Commission on Human Rights, which had often been criticized for being biased. The council brings together 47 nations elected by a majority vote in the UN General Assembly.

On February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a special military operation based on a request from the heads of the Donbass republics. The Russian leader stressed that Moscow had no plans to occupy Ukrainian territories, and the goal was to demilitarize and denazify the country.
