Russia is using war crimes as a systematic tool of fighting its war in Ukraine, says human rights lawyer Oleksandra Matviichuk of the Nobel-prizewinning Centre for Civil Liberties. Speaking to DW’s Richard Walker at the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Berlin, Matviichuk described the litany of 72,000 war crimes she says the Centre for Civil Liberties has found evidence of in Ukraine. Matviichuk explained why it’s crucial to overcome Russia’s sense of impunity, for the International Court of Justice to hold Vladimir Putin accountable for the abduction of children. And she called for a special international tribunal to pursue charges of the crime of aggression: for the unleashing of Putin’s war in the first place. And she discusses what other wars in the Middle East, Sudan, and elsewhere in the world say about the failures of the global system.
