In fact, President Biden was well out in front of most of the world in declaring that what Russia was doing and what Vladimir Putin was authorizing here were war crimes. We have seen that in Bucha and other parts of Ukraine. The systematic targeting of civilians, the grisly murder. That\u2019s why we\u2019re working not just on long-term accountability, but in the short term, Russian weapons supplies to Ukraine so they can defend themselves against Russian attacks and liberate towns like Bucha from the grip of Russian brutality.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>When asked if Russia is committing genocide,\u00a0Sullivan said, \u201cLook, in my opinion, the label is less important than the fact that these acts are cruel and criminal and wrong and evil and need to be responded to decisively.
