Zelenskyy Demands Justice for Alleged War Crimes in Ukraine.
Speaking at a summit in Bucha, Ukraine, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reiterated calls for Russia to be held accountable for alleged war crimes committed since the 2022 invasion. Marking the third anniversary of the withdrawal of Russian forces from Bucha, Zelenskyy cited over 183,000 documented crimes linked to Russian aggression.
President Zelenskyy emphasized that this figure does not encompass the full scope of alleged crimes committed in currently occupied Ukrainian territories. He stressed the necessity of robust international law to safeguard Ukrainians and European society from future threats. Furthermore, President Zelenskyy asserted that justice is paramount to prevent the spread of evil, advocating for continued pressure and sanctions on Russia to contain further escalation of the conflict and related abuses. Russia has not yet commented on the remarks, but previously denied these accusations.
