There is a loud and growing chorus of calls for the International Criminal Court to pursue Vladimir Putin. On March 2, the court said it would immediately proceed with an active investigation of possible war crimes following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, reported CNN.
The US Embassy in Kyiv said two days later that
Russia committed a war crime by attacking a nuclear power plant in Ukraine.
"It is a war crime to attack a nuclear power
plant," the embassy said on its official Twitter feed. "Putin's shelling
of Europe's largest nuclear plant takes his reign of terror one step
further."
Russia's suspected use of cluster bombs and
so-called vacuum bombs in dense areas with many civilians has also been
described as a war crime.
"I want to be very clear about this, that Mr.
Putin is a war criminal," former Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk
told the Council on Foreign Relations recently. "He has to sit behind the
bars in International Criminal Court."
