The resignation says there is credible evidence that moscow is forcibly taking unaccompanied ukrainian children to russia to be adopted and that thousands of other ukrainians are being forcibly deported from russia occupied areas. The u. S. Says so called filtration operations about to a war crime under math. Gazda james base has more from the un this Security Council meeting was called by albania. And the us, the have been persistent allegations that when russian soldiers have captured areas of ukraine, theyve taken away people who lived there to russia. A process of enforced displacement, Ambassador Linda Thomas greenfield, says the u. S. Government believes the numbers involved are staggering, hate that russian authorities have interrogated, detained, forcibly to put it between 900001 point 6000000 ukranian citizens from their homes to russia, often to isolated regions in the far east. And i want to be clear, the United States has information that officials from russias president ial administration are overseeing and coordinating these filtration operations. A senior human rights official says her office can verify that what are known as filtration camps have been set up to process ukrainians. But its worth noting, she gave no estimate of the number of people involved. Alexia, china has documented that men and women perceived as having ties with Ukranian Armed forces, or state institutions.

Human rights watch says its Research Shows that force deportation is taking place and it says that amounts to a war crime. James bays al jazeera, the United Nations, offer more on this. I speak to steven rappe, hes a former Us Ambassador at large for war crimes issues. He also had at the office of global criminal justice in the Us State Department and joins us now live from washington dc. Good to have you with us. Its not so horrifying is ation. Isnt that unaccompanied children forcibly relocated to russia . Do you agree that this behavior would amount to a war crime . Absolutely no question. This is a war crime. The force will be for taishan of a population is a war crime. Its actually a great reach of the geneva conventions, which has been ratified by every country in the world, including the russian federation. And its also worse. Deportation is also a crime against humanity. And the International Criminal court has jurisdiction that by reason of ukraines declaration that it had that jurisdiction in it. I gave the jury section to the i, c. C. And 43 countries. Move that case in the hands of the prosecutor. So these crimes could be prosecuted in the i c, c and very significant. When the u. S. Government talks about the direct involvement of the president ial administration. Because one of the challenges in war crimes is, is proving high level responsibility. And it may be clear in this case than it is in cases like the killings and torture in boucher. Well, absolutely. I wanted to highlight that as well. Would this mean that puts in himself could be directly accused of a war crime . Well obviously thats possible within the i, c k and the International Criminal court, prosecuted charles taylor, the president of Library Never set foot in sierra the young, but we prosecuted him in that special court because there was territorial jurisdiction. Hes serving a 50 years sentence, and of course, melissa, which was famously prosecuted for the crime committed an apartment lobby and transferred to the ag. I was on trial when he passed in 2006. So the, i think he does have jurisdiction. And the challenge of high level individuals, one doesnt have to honor immunities, which is means they could reach legally. But the usual challenge is showing that connection with what the lower level of people are doing on the ground. There are ways that can potentially be done with regular units, but an operations that are directly under the control of the russian state in which the crime is continuing and some of the worst aspects of re committed in russia. Those are frankly easier to attribute to high level individuals. So whats the timeframe might we be looking at if you were to prosecute for a war crime . Well, that adds up to the International Criminal court. Weve of course, had prior chords like get the lobby as your mental indict melissa, which i think on the 70 day of the, of the constable intervention. And of course, the case against kadakya very quickly in 2011. I think that your current prosecutor, its very cautious that hes hired. I want to why for her deputies and my successor at the special court for sierra leone brand about us, who is of course, directly involving court in the prosecution of taylor. So i, so obviously i think theyre working to develop evidence of high level responsibility. And we just have to wait and see. Because knowing brenda, i believe shell make sure that the evidence is there before before anything else goes forward. As your report or noted, there are Additional Investigation that is happening. We have a statement of course without numbers from the un assistant secretary general for human rights. But there is a Human Rights Council created commission of inquiry, chaired by a former tribunal judge, a judge or most of norway, whose staff is, is there any country in ukraine is seeking access to places like this all we camp and will be making its 1st or part orally added to the Human Rights Council in geneva, later or later this month. So the evidence is what is critically needed here, but certainly there is no question that more than a 1000000 cranium 7 moved into russia because weve heard from many of them but managed to then get out that they were often shipped to very, very challenging and depressed areas of the country and, and additionally that there is separation of those that are suspected of being pero ukrainian, which is not unlikely since they were in ukraine and their country was made. So. So i think we have a lot of information about this crime already. And, and finding the, the indications of that its a card or policy. Its very important that the pattern can show that policy and so more investigation is needed. But this is extremely serious and data case, steven rappe, thank you very much for time. Join us from washington dc. Good to be with you. For the 1st time, ukraines top military chief has claimed responsibility for a series of attacks on russian ab bases on the occupied peninsula of crimea. Cave also says its making advances on its counter offensive in the northeast forces a talk to russian controlled areas surrounding it. Second largest city call cave. Ever as all day has more from cave. Fierce battles were seeing fierce battles in many parts of the front lines of this war. In the last 24 hours, it was just 24 hours ago that you created military launched this offensive in the northeast, around how to keep the 2nd largest city city that ukraines have held since day one of this invasion by the russians. However, there had been a lot of shelling from the russians in and near how to keep, and that is why the ukrainians launched a counter offensive and were starting get a better sense of how that is shaping up. Now. It appears that the Ukrainian Military has made advances as they are going east and south of how to keep. And were seeing anecdotal evidence from telegram channels, from videos, even from some Ukrainian Military personnel and officials in the fight that ukraine appears to be either recapturing villages or very close to recapturing villages and towns. One in particular is ballot. Clear. City of pre war population about 25000 people about about a 100 kilometers south east of how to keep city. And it appears at this point that the ukrainians have encircled that city and are very close to launching. What appears to be could be a battle to reclaim it completely. Or present. Lot of putin has warned the west that it cannot isolate russia. Hes been speaking of the Eastern Economic form in flat of all stock. He said western sanctions against russia have backfired. And now threatened the whole world, the baba reports a bold move from brussels, but will it work . The european commissions going ahead with a plan for a new price cut on russia . Natural gas. We all know that our sanctions, i deeply grinding into the russian economy with a heavy negative impact. But booting is partially buffering through fossil fuel revenues. So here the objective is we must cut rushes, revenues, which putting you as, as to finance his atrocious war in ukraine. Since february, the use imposed sanctions on russia and acted to win itself off russian energy, some Member States are skeptical of the price cap worried it could push moscow to turn off the taps completely rushes already stopped or reduce supplies on 3 of its biggest westwood gas pipelines, while oil supplies have been re directed eastwards as its economy and course is now more cut off from the westland many Global Markets and any point since the end of the cold war. And in some respects, while warn you craters, gone russian, russia dejection, sanctioned means that russias economic fate is sealed. It has to become an asia facing eastern facing economic power, or it will legally perish if president putins worried. Hes not letting on speaking at the same Economic Forum in vladivostok, he called the price capital stupid. You mean he also addressed another issue with global implications. Ukraines grain exports shipments like this one resumed after key. Evan moscow reached a deal in july with turkey in the United Nations, acting as guarantors. But putin says that developing world is being cheated. Is uletha mitchell story. If we remove turkey as an intermediary, virtually all the grain was brought not the poorest countries but to the european union. The World Food Program speaks of the need for the poorest countries. Out of 60000. 00 tons of production, just 3 percent went to developing countries. Little over wise, you may surprise you and data shows. Turkey has been the biggest single destination with cargo is also going to china, india, egypt, yemen, somalia, djibouti, whatever the reality Vladimir Putin insists his countrys already seen off the worst effects of western sanctions. Sang inflation has started to fall, he told his gathering rushes Natural Resources would protect the nation as jobs and companies disappeared in europe.

This is significant because iran has maintained that theyre not interested in developing a nuclear weapon. Theyre not pursuing one. Their Nuclear Program is for civilian purposes, but the agency is now saying very clearly that they are no longer in a position to provide assurances that that is the case. This all comes, of course, at a time when iran is trying to negotiate with the United States to go back to full compliance under that 2015 nuclear deal, which saw iran limit its Nuclear Activities in exchange for sanctions relief and in the United States left that seal and 2018 on there. Then you as president , donald trump, who said that it was not a good enough deal for the us now. The Bided Administration was interested or husband interested in returning to the deal.
