Russian President Vladimir Putin called the “genocide” policy of the Kyiv authorities in relation to the inhabitants of Donbass and announced the need for adequate and flexible legal regulation in order to prevent such crimes against humanity.
Interfax reports that in an appeal to the participants of the International Legal Forum in St. Petersburg, Putin called for an open dialogue to develop “adequate and flexible legal regulation” on vital topics, calling them a climatic agenda, hunger struggle, and ensuring the stability of food and energy markets, ensuring strategic stability, maintaining non -proliferation regimes, improving the situation in the field of control of weapons.
“All these spheres require adequate and flexible legal regulation, painstaking joint work. And then crises will not arise like what is happening today in the Donbass in order to protect its inhabitants from the genocide – and the actions of the Kyiv regime have no other definition, except as a crime against humanity, ”said the President of the Russian Federation.
Putin expressed confidence that “only steadily following international law, working on a collective basis, you can solve the most difficult problems facing the world, to ensure a stable, sustainable, progressive development of all states.”
