“Read this when you are told that Russia cannot be isolated. There is no difference between Russian diplomats calling for the execution of Ukrainian prisoners of war and Russian troops doing it in Olenivka. They are all complicit in these war crimes and must be held accountable. It is time to recognize Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism,” he wrote.
