The United States is seeking to have Russia removed from the U.N.’s Human Rights Council. On Monday, President Biden promised to impose additional sanctions on Russia, as he doubled down on his previous statement calling Vladimir Putin a war criminal.
President Joe Biden: “He is a war criminal. But we have to gather the information. We have to continue to provide Ukraine with the weapons they need to continue the fight. And we have to gather all the detail so this can be an actual — have a war crime trial. This guy is brutal. And what’s happening in Bucha is outrageous, and everyone’s seen it.”
