KYIV — Ukraine’s parliament on Thursday backed a resolution recognizing the actions of the Russian military in the country as “genocide.”
“The actions committed by the armed forces of Russia are not just a crime of aggression, but pursue the goal of the systematic and consistent destruction of the Ukrainian people, their identity and the deprivation of their right to self-determination and independent development,” the text approved by a majority of the 363 lawmakers says.
