Lubinets: Goal of Ukraine, as well as of entire democratic world, is to bring Russia to justice
KYIV. March 6 (Interfax-Ukraine) – The shooting of a Ukrainian soldier who was captured is a violation of the Geneva Conventions, said the Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights Dmytro Lubinets, commenting on a video that appeared earlier on the web.
“The shooting of a Ukrainian serviceman who was captured is a violation of the Geneva Conventions. This is a manifestation of meanness. When all over the world the words ‘Glory to Ukraine’ evoke reverence, respect and pride, Russians shoot for the Ukrainian motto … It is very painful to look at what the occupiers are doing to our people. The goal of Ukraine, as well as of the entire democratic world, is to bring the Russian Federation to justice,” Lubinets wrote on the Telegram channel.
He stressed that Russia will have to answer for every war crime committed.
“I sent this video to international partners and fellow ombudsmen from around the world as confirmation of another Russian war crime,” the ombudsman said.
As it was reported earlier, a video of the murder of an unarmed man in a Ukrainian military uniform without visible identification marks appeared on the network. He looks in the direction where the camera is, a voice-over says, “Catch him on video.” To this the prisoner replies: “Glory to Ukraine.” After that, numerous shots sound. The video was shot in a forest plantation.
