Rebecca Hamilton: Too early to say if Russians carry out a genocide in Ukraine
Evidence of russian atrocities in Ukrainian towns such as Bucha, combined with the Kremiln rhetoric in Russian media suggesting the need for “de-Ukrainization”, have spurred the discussion around whether Russia is carrying out #genocide in Ukraine. Rebecca Hamilton, Associate Professor of Law at the American University Washington College of Law who has served as a lawyer in the prosecutorial division of the International Criminal Court, speaks to CNN Greece's Christos Gavalas and offers an in depth analysis of why determining the russian acts as genocide will take time and is going to have limited efficacy, when it comes to putting a quick end to people’s suffering.
