Russia charges UKRAINIAN soldiers with 'crimes against humanity' and calls for 'independent' tribunal...run by SYRIA and IRAN

Russia has charged dozens of Ukrainian soldiers with 'crimes against humanity' and wants them tried by an international tribunal led by Syria and Iran, the country's top investigator has said.

Alexander Bastrykin, who heads the Russian Investigative Committee, said 92 Ukrainian 'commanders and subordinates' have been charged with 'crimes against the peace and security of mankind' over the war.

Another 96 people, including 51 of Ukraine's top commanders, have been put on a wanted list which includes politicians and 'nationalists', Bastrykin added.

The 68-year-old said it is 'extremely doubtful' whether the men could be prosecuted by the United Nations, due to what he called 'the collective position of the West' in supporting Kyiv.

Instead, he told local newspaper Rossiyskaya Gazeta that the men should be tried by an international tribunal led by Russia's partners.

Such nations would include ex-Soviet states such as Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Tajikistan, and allies further abroad such as India, China and Brazil.

Iran and Syria should also be invited to join the panel because of their 'independent position on the Ukrainian issue', he added.

Did you hear this??

A huge totalitarian country who wants to ally with the most oppressive, vile regimes/states to weaken and destroy everyone else isn’t our problem!

I guess 9/11 wasn’t our “problem” either, even after they directly attacked us.

I’m sure Russia’s revolting fans on here will have no issue with Russia’s biggest allies being Cuba, Iran, North Korea, and Syria since in their vile eyes, America is worse than they are.

Their demand to have uiran and syria on the committee- is no more ridiculous than our own country putting together a ‘select committee to investigate Trump and Jan 6”

Or this from seven years back:

...The Obama administration insists that it will catch any terrorist infiltrators through its interviewing process.

...But, the State Department report said, "In some countries, such as Syria, Yemen and Eritrea, Department of Homeland Security adjudicators have been unable to travel to interview applicants for several years."

That's not all. The UNHCR is working "hand in hand" with an international Islamist group of 57 Muslim nations — the Organization of Islamic Cooperation — whose founding charter seeks to propagate "legitimate jihad" and "the norms of Islamic Shari'ah." Saudi-based OIC, in fact, is tied to the radical Muslim Brotherhood.

"We are delighted to work ... with the OIC," said U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees Antonio Guterres.

So it's really the U.N. and radical Islamists who are choosing your new Muslim neighbors.

While the U.N. calls its project "refugee resettlement," the Islamists call it "hijra," or immigration jihad.

While being opposed to most of our foreign policies for the past 30 some odd years, especially the wars to impose “democracy” by force and stringing more and more US troops throughout multiple countries, I understand that TOTAL isolation is neither feasible nor wise.

We should resist the worst actors worldwide predominately by helping them fight for themselves, provided they do most of the fighting themselves.
