The Kremlin’s “ecocide” is the Putin regime’s crime against Earth

The war in Ukraine has brought attention to many pressing humanitarian issues in the country. Despite this, the conflict’s effects on the environment have not been discussed at length. Russia’s actions in Ukraine could well set a legal precedent for “ecocide” in international law.

Russia “raised the stakes” in Ukraine and Europe now faces a new test

A Ukrainian victory would usher in a new geopolitical transformation
