Torture of civilians
vendredi 22 janvier 2021 à 01:00The European Court of Human Rights ruled that Russian forces tortured and murdered Georgian civilians and burned their houses, in the 2008 war between Russia and Georgia.
Bizarrely, it was Georgia which started that war by attacking Russia, perhaps hoping to get NATO support when Russia counterattacked. But NATO declined to be drawn in.
I can't criticize Russia for counterattacking when attacked, but that doesn't excuse war crimes.
