minus-squarequeermunist she/her@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up4·edit-213 hours agoWhy hasn’t the ICJ opened a case? This isn’t a matter of technical definition, it’s the crime of crimes. There’s a reason no legal case for genocide has been made, it’s because the standards for it are too high for anything Russia has done to meet. Calling it genocide cheapens the term.

minus-squarequeermunist she/her@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-25 hours agoActually other countries have joined SA in their genocide case: Nicaragua, Belgium, Colombia, Turkey, Libya, Egypt, Maldives, Mexico, Ireland, Chile, Spain, and Palestine itself. The UN itself weighed in too and called Israel’s actions a genocide. Any country could bring a genocide case against Russia, yet no one has. Doesn’t that tell you anything?
