Three figures depicting Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin as a prisoner in handcuffs have been placed near a former KGB prison in Vilnius ahead of the third anniversary of Russias fullscale invasion of Ukraine.
Source Lithuanian public broadcaster LRT, as reported by European Pravda Details The display of the figure of Putin, dressed in a prisoners uniform and handcuffs, is meant to remind decisionmakers and the public of the actions and decisions that historical justice demands, according to the Lithuanian Genocide and Resistance Research Centre LGGRTC.
Arnas Bubnys, Director General of the LGGRTC, believes this is the future that awaits the Russian leader.
I think Putins place is not at the negotiating table, as some propose now, but in these prison clothes, standing in the dock at the Hague Tribunal, Bubnys told reporters on Sunday.
Bubnys said that Lithuania understands from its own history what genocide and mass terror entail and Russia must compensate Ukraine for the atrocities it has committed.
Background Meanwhile, media reports indicate that European states believe the new US administrations refusal to call Russia an aggressor may signal their withdrawal from the group of countries preparing a special tribunal for the crime of aggression against Ukraine.
On Sunday, Ukraines Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha urged the international community to examine Russias actions amid reports that the United States refuses to name Russia as an aggressor in several resolutions.
