US support for Putin’s decision

The US State Department announced that there is no doubt that Russia committed war crimes in Ukraine regarding the arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin by the International Criminal Court (ICC) and wants those responsible be accountable

In a written statement to the AA correspondent, the Foreign Office said: “There is no doubt that Russia has committed war crimes and inhumane acts in Ukraine, and we have made it clear that those responsible must be held to account.”

Stating that the United States had previously determined that the Russians had committed inhumane acts in Ukraine, the ministry asserted that the crimes committed by the Russian forces violated international law and that these crimes must not go unpunished.

“However, the US determinations of war crimes and inhumane acts committed in Ukraine are independent of the independent trials of the International Criminal Court (ICC). made his assessment.

Noting that the ICC Prosecutor is an independent actor and will prosecute based on his own evidence, the US State Department stated that it supports the accountability of perpetrators of war crimes.

The United States is not part of the ICC and opposes bringing Israel’s inhumane acts against the Palestinians before this court.

The ICC announced that as part of its investigation into crimes committed in Ukraine, an arrest warrant was issued for Russian President Putin and Russia’s Commissioner for Children’s Rights, Maria Alekseyevna Lvova-Belova, for war crimes.

Biden, on the other hand, claimed the decision touched on an important point, and when asked if Putin committed war crimes in Ukraine, he said: “He clearly committed war crimes.” he gave the answer.
