Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky visited the town of Bucha on Monday, reiterating allegations against Russia of war crimes and vowing to punish those Kiev deems responsible. The town, located northwest of Ukraine’s capital, made the headlines over the weekend after multiple dead civilians were discovered laying in the streets there.
Zelensky, accompanied by a heavily-armed security detail, met a large group of foreign journalists at the site of the reported mass killings.
“We want you to show the world what happened here. What the Russian military did. What the Russian Federation did in peaceful Ukraine. It was important for you to see that these were civilians,” Zelensky told the reporters.
The alleged massacre, which Kiev was quick to blame on Moscow, has shown “the nature of the Russian military,” which “treats people worse than animals,” Zelensky claimed. The president also urged the West to “find a civilized solution” to deal with the incident and bring those responsible to justice, warning that Ukraine otherwise would instead have to opt for a “non-civilized solution” of its own.
