National security adviser calls brutal attacks, including missile strike on rail station, war crimes but avoids calling it genocide
The White House has doubled down on its condemnation of Russian targeting of Ukrainian civilians as war crimes, describing recent events including Friday’s missile strike on a railway station as “cruel and criminal and evil” – but stopping short of classifying the brutal attacks as genocide.
Joe Biden’s national security adviser, Jake Sullivan, took to the TV political shows on Sunday to decry Russia’s “systematic targeting of civilians, the grisly murder of innocent people, the brutality, the depravity” in Ukraine.
