you know, clarissa, one of the most interesting parts of your conversation with the icc was about the timing. these are still going on. how unusual is that? reporter: it is highly unusual, and it was interesting to hear that green comet was still pedestrian. we need to accelerate and have a sense that the wheels of justice turn in a timely manner. as opposed to traditionally where we might be talking about years after the conflict has ended, within a month of the russian invasion, khan and his team are already beginning their investigations. just over a year after the war began, you have the first two arrest warrants being issued. and the idea is this will continue of pace now.
processes that will take decades. we have to act now because time is ticking. this type of human rights work that you do can be thankless. you can get no results for years on certain things. years. like ted williams said about baseball. you fail 75% of the time. so this is history in your point of mind? this is the point where the dog caught the postal truck. this usually does not happen. the fact is, we have to take this moment which validates the anguish of the people of ukraine and those parents and turn it into, what is next. you have got to make account. nathaniel rayman, thank you for the work that you do and for being with us here tonight. coming up, more from clarissa ward s interview with icc prosecutor khan. (boy) you re not gonna believe this girl. (girl) mom! dad! mom, dad, have you seen thisis? (boy) .i did it.
you will see more arrest warrants, potentially. more investigations as all the different allegations that have been made are researched. now, obviously, this takes a huge amount of resources, john. there is no shortage of war crimes taking place in ukraine. in fact, to use khan s own words, he says ukraine is basically a crime scene. there is an enormous amount of work that needs to be done to go to try to verify and to build up solid cases, in this instance and in future investigations taking place. clarissa ward, we will have more coming up. and thanks to both of you. next, more on the woman we have been talking about and the program she runs bringing ukrainian children to russia and erasing their ukrainian identity. later, my conversation with elaine mcmanus, who 360 viewers got to know.
