those are war crimes and attributable directly. this is an army under the command of vladimir putin. and peter baker, as a former moscow bureau chief, you know putin s in charge, he s defined the terms of the engagement. he didn t even have a commander in charge of the whole command operation. his orders, his decisions. it won t be hard to prove chain of command or intent given the past statements about how ukraine isn t even a country. it belongs to russia. i think that s exactly what you said is right. in other words, i m not a lawyer and i can t tell you what qualifies in a legal sense. he may not be trying to wipe out ukrainians as an entire people but he is trying to wipe out the idea of ukrainians as a separate people. he does not believe ukrainians are people, does not believe ukraine as a nation and clearly
and opressing his own people at home. and the u.s. going after his family, the adult daughters. is that symbolic or does that good etto him? i think anything you do that shows disrespect is helpful. i don t think anything is in his daughters name but it does send a message that if you kill 10s of thousands of innocent ukrainians, you re not let off the hook and everybody around you isn t let off the hook. prrts it s about their family members, extend trustees and so on and so forth and we have to touch them all to make a point to putin, which is there will be consequences for are what you do. you are one of the early warners of exactly what is happening. book is freezing order. thank you so much for speaking
