U.S. President Joe Biden (pictured) called Russian President Vladimir Putin a “war criminal” in connection with the discovery of the massacre of civilians by Russian forces in Bucha, a city outside the Ukrainian capital Kiiu (Kyiv) on the 4th (local time). ‘ He criticized once more and said that it should be brought to trial. President Biden has also pledged to impose additional sanctions on Russia.
“You will remember that I criticized Putin by calling him a war criminal,” Biden told reporters at the White House on the same day. This proves him. He is a war criminal.”
“This man is cruel,” Biden said. And what’s happening at the bucha is shocking, and we’ve all seen it.” “He must be held accountable,” Biden said, adding that he would impose additional sanctions on Russia.
“We must gather intelligence and continue to provide arms to Ukraine to continue the fight,” Biden said. did.
Biden has already identified Putin as a war criminal following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. He also denounces him every day with strong words such as murder dictator, murderer and gangster. It is noteworthy whether the movement to convict Putin and Russia on war crimes charges will begin in earnest, as President Biden even announced that Putin should be brought to a war crimes trial. The International Court of Justice (ICJ), which deals with disputes between states, or the International Criminal Court (ICC), which condemns individual war crimes, is mentioned as an institution that can dispel international legal disputes over Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. If the situation is serious, a special court may be operated.
In the Bucha area, following the retreat of the Russian army, the bodies of civilians buried or left unattended in groups were discovered one following another, shocking the world.
Ukrainian Prosecutor General Irina Benedictova said that 410 civilian bodies were recovered from the Bucha area outside Kiiu alone, which had been recovered from Russian forces, the Associated Press reported. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky made a deputy visit on the same day, saying Russia had committed “genocide” in the region and that tougher sanctions should be imposed on Russia.
The US has accused Putin and Russian troops of war crimes, but said the secondary genocide does not yet appear to be considered genocide. For genocide officially decided by the UN General Assembly, the severity of punishment and the size of political and moral condemnation are much greater than that of other war crimes. When asked if he saw the secondary genocide as a genocide, President Biden said “no” and “it is a war crime.”
White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said at a briefing: “We do not believe this was simply a random event or an independent action by any particular individual.” “We have not yet seen the level of systematic deprivation of wild animals’ lives,” he said.
Sullivan said additional sanctions once morest Russia would be announced this week.
