Resumen

This paper aims to analyze the fundamental principles of international humanitarian law in Geneva law, applicable to the international protection of victims of armed conflicts, with special reference to the events between Russia and Ukraine in the year 2022. It was based on the technique of documentary analysis on international doctrine and regulations, through the hermeneutical, analytical-synthetic method. The general provisions of international humanitarian law were interpreted, exposing the historical development in accordance with the 1974-1977 Diplomatic Conference and the conventions and protocols promoted by the International Committee of the Red Cross, contributing to the progressive advance and application of the fundamental principles of the right to Hague. For this reason, a position is established regarding the principles of international humanitarian law and the violation of human rights in the armed conflict between Ukraine and Russia, concluding in the face of these postulates that all the approaches that international organizations have made, as well as the actions of the States before the International Criminal Court, as legal subjects of international humanitarian law, suppose legitimate actions for the Law of Geneva and the Law of The Hague.
