“History Will Not Forget The War Crimes” Committed In Ukraine – European Council President

European Council President Charles Michel gestures as he speaks during a debate on the conclusions of the European Council meeting regarding Russian invasion of Ukraine.

“History will not forget the war crimes” committed in Ukraine, President of the European Council Charles Michel said Wednesday.

Pictures posted to Michel’s social media account showed the former Belgian Prime Minister visiting Ukraine, with one titled “In Borodyanka.”

“Like Bucha and too many other towns in Ukraine. History will not forget the war crimes that have been committed here. There can be no peace without justice,” Michel tweeted.

Russia has denied allegations of war crimes and claims its forces do not target civilians, but CNN journalists on the ground in Ukraine have seen firsthand evidence of atrocities at multiple locations across the country.

Earlier on Wednesday, Michel shared a picture of his arrival at a train station in the capital of Kyiv. “In the heart of a free and democratic Europe,” he said.

Belgian Prime Minister Alexander De Croo said Tuesday that Russia’s aggression in Ukraine was “comparable to the darkest pages in our European history.”

He added that it was “heart-breaking to see that something like this can still happen in Europe” and that “that there can be no impunity for war crimes.”
