US President Joe Biden joined the global outcry over the purported massacre of civilians at Bucha over the weekend, demanding a “war crimes trial” for Russian President Vladimir Putin at a press briefing on Monday.
He went on to mention the need to “gather the information” and “get all the details” ahead of “an actual … war crimes trial.”
This comes as the US seeks to suspend Russia’s membership on the UN Human Rights Council “in response to allegations that Russian forces committed war crimes in Bucha and elsewhere in Ukraine,” Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the US ambassador to the UN, announced on Monday, calling on the 140 nations that voted last month to condemn Russia’s military operation in Ukraine to “match our words with action.”
The International Criminal Court (ICC) launched an investigation in March into alleged war crimes and other offenses committed during Russia’s military offensive in Ukraine, having “already found a reasonable basis to believe crimes within the jurisdiction of the Court had been committed,” ICC prosecutor Karim Khan said in a statement issued at the time.
