Russia EU Ban, page-316

1. Numerous, very detailed investigations (most probably to be pursued in the International Criminal Court, in The Hague, Holland) are being conducted into thousands of Russian war crimes (against civilians & Ukranian troops- inc. POW's) in Ukraine.

IMO, Russia will be a pariah nation for decades- & its vast fossil fuel resources will likely be banned by democratic countries for decades.

As many EU, G7, UK, & Japanese leaders have stated, democratic countries are opposed, as much as is practicable, to providing funds & profits for the Russian military, & economy; & a country deemed officially by the EU & USA as " A State Sponsor Of Terrorism", & 'An Aggressor State" respectively.






2. Nikkei is a Japanese State Media Service. H. Akita said 24.12.22

"TOKYO -- As it has little chance of defeating Ukraine with conventional arms, Russia is destroying the country's vital civilian infrastructure, such as power plants and housing units, to make people freeze and lose their will to fight.

Russia's action is tantamount to torture of the Ukrainian people and must be stopped as soon as possible. For that, it is necessary to further isolate Moscow to weaken President Vladimir Putin's will and ability to carry on the war.

From this point of view, what happened at the Group of 20 summit in Bali, Indonesia, on Nov. 15-16 was encouraging: The G-20 leaders issued a joint statement condemning Russia's invasion in Ukraine.

It was rather unexpected...

The rest are mostly "neutral powers" in Asia, the Middle East and Latin America that are not aligned with either the West or the China-Russia camp. These powers include India, Indonesia, South Africa, Brazil and Mexico. G-20 members' official positions on Russia's aggression in Ukraine are widely varied.

Unexpectedly, however, the G-20 adopted a joint declaration denouncing Russia's war, overcoming differences in those positions. While not naming Russia, the document stated, "Most members strongly condemned the war in Ukraine," adding, "The use or threat of use of nuclear weapons is inadmissible."

This statement has huge implications because it means that the neutral powers that had been reluctant to openly criticize Moscow have signaled a clear "no" to its invasion.

Initially, China, Putin's close ally, tried to dilute the anti-Russia rhetoric in the declaration, but in the end, it went along with the majority and did not raise an objection to its adoption. Putin did not attend the event.

According to several diplomatic sources, Indonesia, this year's host of the summit, and India, the host for next year, were instrumental in building consensus for the document. Officials of the two governments made well-coordinated efforts to lay diplomatic groundwork to win the support of other G-20 members".

3. The aforementioned Investigations, in point 1 above, will also be partially relying on documented evidence, gathered by & provided to International (ie non-Ukranian) Investigators, by Russian military personnel who served in the invasion army (either captured: or defected- inc. an Officer).
