This is a high time for the G7 countries and Ukraine to establish a special legal panel to bring to justice Putin, all the commanders in chain and every soldier who has committed atrocities against the Ukrainian people.

“It has to be a Nuremberg-like panel that has been established to go after Nazi crimes. It has to be done as soon as possible,” Arseniy Yatsenyuk, Prime Minster of Ukraine in 2014-2016 told CNN, Ukrinform reports with reference to Kyiv Security Forum.

He called the events in Ukraine the biggest disaster in Europe since World War II: “Everything that Putin, his cronies and his soldiers are doing to Ukrainian people is war crimes and crimes against humanity. This is similar to what happened in Srebrenica.”

“I believe that Putin will lose this war. After all, this is a war against the free world and against freedom,” Yatsenyuk said.

“And we need to prepare now. A legal body that will go after Putin and his criminals has to be established urgently. We need to be ready to bring Putin to justice. And see him behind bars,” Ukraine’s ex-PM stressed.
