Chairman of Verkhovna Rada of #Ukraine @r_stefanchuk:
Orders. All Russian servicemen say that there are orders. Although these orders are, indeed, criminal. But they have still carried out such commands, and now they regret it.

Therefore, as a lawyer, I consider it my duty to conduct general legal training for the Russian military. The execution of a criminal order does not release servicemen from disgrace and severe criminal liability for crimes against humanity.

According to Art. 33 of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, “Orders to commit genocide or crimes against humanity are manifestly unlawful”.

Russia’s war criminals will face their "Nuremberg Trials of the 21st Century" and there will be no "lawyers" from the civilized world, for only people have the right of defense in court.

Committee on Agrarian and Land Policy of the Verkhovna Rada of #Ukraine: Russia should be excluded from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the @UN @FAO.

Russia's military invasion of Ukraine has not only led to a mass flow of refugees from the country, the death of our citizens, the destruction of large and small settlements, but experts say it could lead to the most profound food crisis in modern human history.
👇

If the war continues, world markets will not get close: MLN of wheat, 38 MLN tons of corn, and MLN of barley, which means world grain exports will fall sharply. Hundreds of millions of people worldwide face food shortages and a major humanitarian crisis.

❗️What threats does the Chernobyl de-energization pose❓

Explanation:
🔻About 20,000 exhausted fuel assemblies are stored at the worked-out nuclear fuel storage facility-1. They need constant cooling, which is possible only if there is electricity;

🔻If it is not, the pumps will not cool down. As a result, the temperature in the holding pools will increase, soaring and release of radioactive substances into the environment will occur;
🔻Wind can transfer a radioactive cloud to other regions of Ukraine, Belarus, Russia, EU;

🔻Ventilation will also not work at the facility. All personnel there will receive a dangerous dose of radiation;
🔻The fire extinguishing system does not work as well, and this is a considerable risk in case of fire, which can occur due to shell hitting;
