Western countries are calling for a war crimes trial against Russia after the latest spate of killings in Bucha, Ukraine. Moscow has denied those allegations. Analyst Vladimir Golstein explains why such claims and counterclaims could impact peace negotiations.
Dozens of bodies littered the streets of Bucha after Russian forces retreated from the town. CGTN’s reporters have visited the scene. But despite evidence from satellite photographs, the Russian government says the bodies appeared after their troops departed.
Ukraine says Bucha was a massacre, Russia says it is a hoax – and the world is analyzing the evidence. Is there any truth in Russian claims that the ‘corpses’ seen worldwide are moving on the video? And what of Moscow’s assertion that the bodies were placed after the Russian withdrawal?
