U.S. President Joe Biden has assessed his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin’s actions in Ukraine as “genocide,” as more and more evidence is surfacing to this end.
The remarks came during the U.S. leader’s trip to Iowa, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
Commenting on the latest fuel price hikes in the U.S., the president said: “Your family budget, your ability to fill up your tank, none of it should hinge on whether a dictator declares war and commits genocide half a world away.
Speaking with journalists in Des Moines later the same day, Biden explained that he had referred to Putin’s actions as “genocide” as it has “become clearer and clearer that Putin is just trying to wipe out the idea of even being a Ukrainian.”
More evidence is emerging to back the assumption, along with the already exposed crimes of the Russian army. He went on to say that the legal experts are yet to formally confirm that Putin’s actions amount to genocide.
Meanwhile, President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine praised Biden’s stance on acknowledging the ongoing genocide of the Ukrainian people by Putin’s Russia.
“True words of a true leader @POTUS. Calling things by their names is essential to stand up to evil. We are grateful for US assistance provided so far and we urgently need more heavy weapons to prevent further Russian atrocities,” Zelensky tweeted.

It’s planned, systematic genocide yes, no question whatsoever. Backed up with rape, child rape, torture and thieving to break the will of Ukrainians.
Putler has received €350 billion from the EU for energy since this war started. A total embargo on ALL trade is essential.
Thank fuck the Orange Buffoon is gone, he would be praising Putler as a great leader.
So, exactly why did Putin wait until Trump was gone and weak kitten in the White House instead? What we have seen in Ukraine recently and back in 2014, came about because the weakness of Obama and recently that of Biden. Weakness is provocative for a Hitler or Putin.
Is that the same orange guy who reversed Obama’s policies and provided Javelins to Ukraine? The same bad orange man who sanctioned Nord Stream 2 before the current president you love so much removed the Trump sanctions? I guess I’m confused 😉
OK we all know Putler is a reincarnation of Hitler. The question is, how long are the US going to watch this genocide take place, before a devastating attack on Russian forces in Ukraine?
That is the big question. With lend lease, I hope it isn’t long and that the aid is massive.
Shortly after the Donbas invasion the US staged dozens of Warthogs in Estonia. I bet those pilots were itching for the order to go in and provide the knockout punch. Its too bad the White House appears to disagree with them. I’m not a General but after watching the Moskali performance it seems the Warthogs could follow up after some air strikes and Putler would be devastated. Then why worry about WWIII because more than half his military would be kaput.
What annoys me, Biden accuses Putler of genocide, then sits back, puts on his slippers and pretends he’s helped Ukraine.
Absolutely. It seems these advisors and Biden himself have taken on the Journos role and report stuff instead of plan stuff. We don’t need reports we need long distance weapons.
Good words because they are very true. Now action must follow those words.
BTW, the stinking pile of brown stuff called Macron disagrees with calling the genocide a genocide.
