Such actions testify to Ukraine's decision to abandon the peaceful model of resolving the conflict in Donbass, the Ombudsman believes.

“By denying the genocide in Donbass, the international community encourages the war crimes of the Armed Forces of Ukraine,” RIA Novosti quotes Morozova.

On February 16, the Investigative Committee opened a criminal case into the discovery of mass graves of civilians in the territory of Donbass.

According to Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to the Russian side, what is happening now in the Donbass is genocide.
