Since 2014, we have seen the Kremlin use its cruel Crimea playbook in other parts of Ukraine’s territory. We see it in the atrocities carried out by Russia’s forces in territories they temporarily occupy, incl. in connection with the filtration process. bit.ly/3yHdrf2

On @UN International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, @US_SRREJ explains why doing the work to counter global systemic racism and discrimination is urgent and important.
On March 21, 1960, police in Sharpeville, South Africa killed 69 peaceful apartheid demonstrators. The massacre shocked the global conscience. This @UN Int'l Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, let's commit to the urgent, crucial, global work of antiracism together.

Acknowledging atrocity crimes in the recent N. Ethiopia conflict is key to transitional justice efforts and enabling a lasting peace. We welcome the commitment the Government of Ethiopia has made to ensuring transitional justice and accountability.
I determined that members of the Ethiopian National Defense Forces, Eritrean Defense Forces, Amhara forces, and Tigray People’s Liberation Front forces committed atrocity crimes. I condemn these atrocities and welcome commitments to pursue transitional justice.
