[QUOTE="BrianV, post: 8152693, member: 150008"] Not a chance I'm afraid, maybe in a few months you yourself might decide you could have been misled. To me the Ukranians have played the West, here's yet another example, Normally war crimes are investigated by independent tribunals later but the Ukrainians know full well that if they sentence this prat to life now & some others then the Russians will definitely try the right wing soldiers they have captured very quickly in retaliation enabling the Unkrainan's to get worlds sympathy yet again, if they cared at all for their captured soldiers they would wait before pushing the Russians to retaliate. As with arming civilians out of uniform we are being played, & no I don't give a damm if Putin drops dead tomorrow just telling it as I see it. [HEADING=2][/HEADING] [HEADING=2]Why does Ukraine want to hold war crimes trials at home? Earlier today, [URL='https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-61549569']a court in Ukraine jailed a Russian tank commander for life[/URL]for killing a civilian, at the first war crimes trial since the invasion.[/HEADING] War crimes trials often happen on neutral ground at the International Criminal Court in The Hague. And that could still happen. The International Criminal Court and the United Nations have their own enquiries under way. But Ukraine wants to move fast. Today’s conviction is unusual – coming just three months into the war. British barrister Wayne Jordash QC, an adviser to the Ukrainian prosecutor’s office, says this does not mean cutting corners. He says all evidence has to be collected according to international standards. He also says several thousand more indictments for war crimes are in the pipeline. Jordash says Ukraine is adamant it wants to try all cases domestically. “The ICC can only do so much,” he tells the BBC's Panorama. The ICC tends to prosecute leaders and their immediate circles, and not lower-level officers. The Russian government denies it has been targeting civilians. [/QUOTE]
