⭐️ Some #US #Russia "Same here BRO" moments

#Pentagon refrains from sharing evidence of alleged #Russian war crimes with international court😂

And reason -it may act as a precedent that could impact US soldiers involved in wars on foreign lands in the future. 😂😂

Some

1. US National Security Council, in its February 3 meeting, sought to find solution to the conflict. But the defense secretary Lloyd Austin was reportedly adamant to not inform the International Criminal Court (ICC) /n

1(a) of the Russian actions in Ukraine based on the US intelligence reports from the region.

2. GOP senator Lindsey Graham, who was a part of the congressional resolution that called for US support to International Criminal Court over war in Ukraine, held the Pentagon responsible for blocking vital intel. “DoD [Department of Defense] opposed the legislative change /n

2(a) – it passed overwhelmingly – and they are now trying to undermine the letter and spirit of the law. It seems to me that DoD is the problem child here, and the sooner we can get the information into the hands of the ICC, the better off the world will be," Graham said.

3. The Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, was partly formulated by the United States. This, finally became a 1998 treaty that established the International Criminal Court.

4. The #US officials, at present remain divided, on utilizing the statute amid ongoing war in Ukraine. They argue that in the future, the US adversaries can prosecute American troops utilizing the same. 😂😂

I am impressed by the "LEVEL OF HONESTY" shown by the #Pentagon.😂🫡
