“Noting that more than a thousand cultural sites had been damaged or destroyed since the beginning of the war, the Congress underlined that the targeting and looting of cultural sites appeared to reflect a systematic policy aimed at erasing Ukraine’s historical and cultural identity, consistent with a genocidal intent,” the Council said.

It’s not the first time Russia’s war in Ukraine has been designated a genocide by international authorities. Multiple European national parliaments have already done so with the Council of Europe deeming Russia’s forced transfer of children as an act of genocide in 2023.

    I didn’t assume. Clearly.

    And yes, they are being killed in china. See the mass graves.

    We can be mad about multiple acts of genocide at the same time. At least I can… apparently you are limited to the genocides that impact you indirectly. Shameful.
