Thank you Amal Clooney @ClooneyFDN for bringing at the Arria meeting organised by @AlMissionUN and @franceonu such a powerful account, with a credible voice based on a genuine and continued commitment for acountability. Impunity is a visa for more crimes, a liscence to kill.

We ask Russia: Stop the war, recall troops back home, choose reason, return to diplomacy, respect your neighbor & let that big heart of Ukraine beat in freedom. The keyword here is Mir. Instead, the scorched-earth strategy applied by 🇷🇺 has made Mariupol the catacomb of Ukraine.
