The following report is by Bloomberg:
Vice President Kamala Harris said the US has concluded that Russia committed “crimes against humanity” in its invasion of Ukraine and vowed that Moscow would be held to account for its actions.
In the case of Russia’s actions in Ukraine, we have examined the evidence, we know the legal standards, and there is no doubt.
The United States has formally determined that Russia has committed crimes against humanity. To all of those who are perpetrating these crimes — and to their superiors, who are complicit in these crimes — you will be held to account.
Harris said in an address Saturday to the Munich Security Conference.
While officials from US President Joe Biden’s administration have repeatedly accused Russia of war crimes and urged Ukraine to document any atrocities committed, Harris’s comments are likely to give new momentum to efforts to ensure that crimes are eventually prosecuted.
European officials have floated support for a hybrid tribunal that would entail prosecuting alleged war crimes in Ukrainian courts. Russia has denied the claims against its forces.
Harris on Saturday detailed many of the allegations.
Russian forces have pursued a widespread and systemic attack against a civilian population — gruesome acts of murder, torture, rape, and deportation. Execution-style killings, beatings, and electrocution.
Russian authorities, have forcibly deported hundreds of thousands of people, from Ukraine to Russia, including children. They have cruelly separated children from their families.
She said.
Harris cited images of a theater in Mariupol where hundreds were killed, a pregnant mother killed after a strike on a maternity hospital, and a United Nations report that a four-year old girl was sexually assaulted by a Russian soldier.
Harris cited her own history as a prosecutor in San Francisco and later as California’s attorney general and said the US “will continue to support the judicial process in Ukraine and international investigations.”
Let us all agree: on behalf of all the victims, known and unknown: justice must be served.
She said.
Large US Delegation
Harris delivered her remarks a week ahead of the one-year mark of Russia’s invasion. The vice president, who spoke at the conference in 2022, days before the war began, highlighted Ukraine’s resilience.
Today, a year later, we know Kyiv is still standing, Russia is weakened, the transatlantic alliance is stronger than ever, and the spirit of the Ukrainian people endures.
As President Biden has often said: the United States will support Ukraine for as long as it takes.
Harris said.
Harris is leading a large delegation to the security conference, including Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, a display of unity intended to highlight the US commitment to Ukraine even as many House Republicans are calling for more scrutiny of the Biden administration’s support for Kyiv.
Biden has helped secure international support for Ukraine, including weapons and funding, and imposed sweeping sanctions on Moscow to hamper Russia’s war. The US has committed nearly $30 billion in security assistance to Ukraine since the invasion began on Feb. 24 last year.
Biden is traveling to Poland on Monday to mark the first year of the war and to speak to allies about efforts to bolster support for Ukraine. During the visit, the president will meet Polish President Andrzej Duda and leaders of the so-called Bucharest 9 group of eastern-flank NATO allies. Next month, Biden will host German Chancellor Olaf Scholz at the White House.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
It should also be noted that Zelensky made yet another speech and plea for more war toys. This time he emphasized his impatience and told the delegates in Munich to “hurry up” and to “speed-up our agreements.”
But as for Kamala,
[15] A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike. [16] Whosoever hideth her hideth the wind, and the ointment of his right hand, which bewrayeth itself. Proverbs 27:15-16
Cackling Camel Toe – who was selected for role purely because of her skin color and gender and nothing more or less – is basically giving the universal signal to everyone that more money and resources are about to be poured into this war; which has already become World War III without calling it that, yet.
I’m not there, but I can tell you that a lot of this supposed terrorism can be attributed to the wicked Ukrainian leaders and militia groups that are total Neo-Nazis through and through, and have been proven to terrorize their own people, women and children, for many years.

Also, I interpret Harris’ remarks to mean that the U.S. and Western allies are going to begin attempting to crackdown on anyone they deem to be a “Russian sympathizer;” so get ready for even more censorship.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).
