PARIS: Russia is accused of war crimes in Ukraine, with the claims growing louder

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy hasover the findings and labelled the bloody siege of the southern port of Mariupol a"crime against humanity".

The parameters of what constitutes such a crime are set out in Article 8 of the 1998 Rome Statute that established the ICC. Crimes against humanity can occur in peacetime and include torture and rape and discrimination, be it racial, ethnic, cultural, religious or gender-based.Genocide as a legal concept dates back to the Nuremburg trials of Nazi war criminals, with Polish-Jewish lawyer Raphael Lemkin coining the term to describe the Nazi extermination of six million Jews.

I stand with the Ukraine 🇺🇦🌻🇺🇦

Who’s the criminal giving weapons to regular citizens..🤷🏻‍♂️☮️

Wow then what crimes against humanity charges are you going to put forward to the world for the crimes against humanity to Fauci China bill Gates Pfizer Moderna and astra Zeneca what charges are you going to comment about for there crimes against humanity

Let’s also pray for Palestine, Yemen, Somalia and other countries that are experiencing the same war crimes but are ignore because they’re not white Ukrainians

How about willfully exposing the planet to a virus killing millions. Does that count?

East West Street by PhilippeSands examines the terms ‘Crimes against Humanity (Hersch Lauterpacht) & ‘Genocide’ (Raphael Lemkin) in an exceptional, at times poignant history about his own family the links with what is now Lyviv & how those terms emerged into international law.

WE ALREADY KNOW IT ALL USA IS THE LARGEST TERRORIST ORGANIZATION IN THE WORLD AND IS USING UCRANE TO TRY TO SAVE ITS EMPIRE ‼️‼️‼️‼️😡

Unless the US submit itself to the IC, sadly, US leaders, and allies have very little credibility to acuse others. Who has been held responsible for atrocities in Iraq, Afganistán, Japan, Vietnam, and the list goes on and on. Not a fan of Putin but looking at it objectively.

That’s right! Trump tried to purposely kill the American people during a pandemic to weed out the poor, old, and what he considered undesirable!

Sounds like our country’s treatment of African Americans… Do we still call it crimes against humanity?

There has been claims Russians raped women and then burnt them and buried the bodies😭

Blyad' Ukraine

the world is failing this man and his people

Most important is war of aggression. Then Russian leadership is held accountable

Tragically I've experienced WarCrimes persecution tribulation all my rights as American citizen violated more attempts on my life than hairs on my head right here in what's supposed to be freest land in the world together through poweroflove we can stop war crimes everywhere

Until the United States is prosecuted for its war crimes against millions, you can kiss someone’s arse

So US and Europe against Iraq? ... Crimes against Humanity🤷🏼‍♀️

When will our government take action? If experience has taught us anything the wars slavery etc. Who knows if any duty bound actin will ever take place.

We should date and bombed all their tanks and missiles and show them what they have done.

I never see the news posting anything about Palestine ? What the Israelis Zionist are doing to them, don’t believe!!! Check out EyeonPalestine and you will see!!

The look of pain caused by sorrow and the acts of mass murderers is etched on President Zelenskiy’s face. It is heartbreaking, my heart breaks for him too. 💔 Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦❤️🇺🇦❤️🇺🇦❤️🇺🇦❤️🇺🇦❤️🇺🇦

War crimes and Crimes against humanity have been persistently committed in history. The perpetrators always got away. Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Syria are just a few examples.

Zelenskyy is brave but was it all worth it

If the president mobilizes the non military citizens to fight doesn't this opened stuff like this to happen?; not saying it right

That means zeninskyy is also guilty of war crimes. He bombed civilians of the Donbas region for the past 8 years, killing 14,000 or so. What goes around comes around.

America, Canada, UK, FRANCE, AUSTRALIA are all guilty of these things. Why is there NO focus these issues HERE? I don’t give a damn about Ukraine

Seattle Washington’s Mayor is committing Crimes Against Humanity with the forcible transfer of black, brown, the elderly and Middle Class decades long homeowners out of the City. It is forced removal.

My husband and I are shocked that u.s.a. is scared of putin, and won't stop fly zone, or send. Planes to help, the Ukraine 🇺🇦 needs help against the DEVIL...but again it's not the family's, children of Biden and others that make these choices. God bless all

When you have seen the horrors of genocide in a mass grave with civilian Men, Women, and Children,..it does this to you because you have a heart. The unspeakable One who ordered this, will kneel before God as he sits in the Throne of Heaven and sents him to Hell where he belongs.

If this war is not stopped, humanity is doomed. There should be severe consequences for speading fake news and government propaganda that are used to convince citizens to kill their neighbors.

What about Yemen? Nothing to see there I guess...

GOD BLESS UKRAINE🇺🇸

He's the best Actor they have

Ukrainian President violated Human rights by breaking the soviet treaty for negotiations with NATO pushing Ukrainian citizens at war

He carries the weight of the world on his shoulders. His expression says it all!

& the list goes on & on about the USA thinking it's invincible, 1.Ukraine soldiers wer recorded racists towards evacuation🙄 2 Ukraine ambacies violated other countries territory especially Africa by providing free transportation for war without any states approval he🙄

I have.known.Putin.commied.crimes..against.Ukraiens.from.day.1

We need to STOP Putin now!

And yet nobody's is nothing so I feel all leaders doing nothing should be charged too!

DOWN WITH NATO & AZOV

He's good at reading script, on '60 Minutes,' last night. But what about the War Crimes that the Cartels in Mexico, are doing to immigrants?

I look at this picture of this man this morning, and I remember the first time I saw him back in February, he was a young looking man who looked like he had a inward smile, I look at him today he looks as though he has aged 30 to 40 years since February.

Putin very soon will see God's hand on him with a lot of wieght..........

Putin is cleaning out the mess US has made in Ukraine Biden want his crime Bombed that his cover up

Yes you can find all the details in East West Street!

Wath amazing man this so honoured to watch his search in Dail Eirann You could see the sadness in his eyes I hope the Europe will listen to his pleads, He is such a brave man God Bless him and his country let's get behind Ukraine and stop sloughter

What is happening in Ukraine is nothing new.🤷🏽‍♂️ Iraq Afghanistan Libya And many more

Free Palestine 🇵🇸

There he stands looking sad. He started this conflict by deciding to join NATO. He knew this would happen. Now he and his cronies are raking in the donations from other countries and from Netflix to whom he sold his dopey TV show.

I will never forgive Russia or Putin for mass genocide, especially of babies born to surrogates may e picture taken with cell phone and parents have seen these presious beautiful bodies being held by someone and forming a bond that can't be helped that God there is someone there.

Oh so like Israel is committing against Palestine?

100% war crime and genocide. All going on while we watch. We must do more. I am ashamed of the world's lack of action.

Like Canada and natives - reserves are concentration camps

That's exactly what is going on in SE Nigeria against the indigenous people of biafra. Nigerian government has done this for decades without it being reported in any major foreign media.

Who cares the about the wording difference. They are breaches of the Geneva convention and somebody needs to step in and hold people responsible immediately!

Is Fauci a criminal?

Never mind genocide against a people what about genocide of the people of the world

A war crime is when a country attacks, invades, occupies another for whatever reason other than justified self defence. It's as wrong today as it was 1000 years ago. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

In that case, why hasnt USA, UK, Israel, Saudi been charged with war crimes and killing thousands of innocent civilians

Perhaps, just maybe, this is all a huge distraction from the actual crime against humanity: the jabbers are now giving people an autoimmune deficiency that echoes A I D S 🤔

❤️🙏🏻 For Ukraine 🇺🇦 & Zelinsky

Never give up Winston Churchill said this maybe the British and do something smart for once French f***** up they're getting rid of him or leaders not good

this isn't a court of public opinion, this is unbiased officials looking at the *facts* and ruling on the reports of crimes committed.

We have crimes against humanity right here in the USA. Just ask the Drs and politicians pushing the shot and just how many have been killed and maimed from the shot. We need justice here in the USA and all over the world.

Apparently nobody filled in Putin about these so called war crimes, I believe his stance Idgaf! What are gonna do about it!

So we are helping the third Reich against Russia now?

It ABSOLUTELY BREAKS MY HEART TO EVEN LOOK AT LESENSKY. His face reflects the face and eyes of the Ukrainian people! PLEASE! STAND UP AMERICA AND DO MORE TO HELP THEM! Sanctions on Putin mean NOTHING TO HIM! NOTHING!

A war crime is a crime in volitation of international rules of war, crime against humanity is a deliberate act that causes widespread suffering and death to humans, and genocide is a systematic destruction of a certain demographic. All of them are terrible.

So blame NATO and their alliance who interfere in other country business and then create war crimes every one has right to protect their boundaries. Door to communication is open but Ukrainian President is not making enough efforts to stop war

All this war and pollution it's creating is killing our planet maybe it's these steps it takes for it to end seems humidity can't live together as one

How about medical crimes against humanity? Individual human rights have been terribly infringed upon for the last 2 years, and it's not over. The WEF, along with other special interests groups are guilty of violating human rights and the human rights counsel are silent.

I want to know the action against war Crime in Palestine,Afghanistan, Iraq and Bosnia first

Funny watching liberals try to make war not so messy. Foreign policy prevents or enables. In this case it has enabled war.

US, Britain and Others are guilty of these crimes for years …. Double standards, l stand by Putin, we need him to sort out this mess for the People

Right like the USA invasion of Vietnam
