Bayden: "Putin must appear before the court for war crimes"

US President Joe Biden called for a trial in the case of military crimes of the Russian army against Russian President Vladimir Putin. He also stated that he would seek the imposition of additional sanctions, reports AP.

“What happened in Buch is outrageous, and they all see it,” Baiden added, calling Putin a “war criminal”.

Comments of the American president were received after the President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky visited the city of Buch, where the bodies of civilians were discovered after the departure of the Russian army. However, Biden did not agree with Zelensky’s assessment, answering no to a question from journalists, "do you consider the incident to the genocide."

The President of the European Commission Ursula von der Layen wrote on Monday on Monday that the EU would send investigators to Ukraine to help the local general prosecutor "to document war crimes."

• On February 24, the Russian army entered the territory of Ukraine. This happened immediately after Vladimir Putin announced that he had decided to start the “special operation” in the Donbass after the request of the so -called “DPR” and “LPR”.
• From the cities of the Kyiv region, recently liberated from the Russian troops, the bodies of 410 civilians were taken out, said Prosecutor General of Ukraine Irina Venediktova.
• More than 40 countries of the world are conducting a joint investigation of war crimes and crimes against humanity that Russia and Russian troops could commit from the beginning of the "special operation" in Ukraine. An independent investigation is also conducted by the International Criminal Court in The Hague.
