What is happening in Ukraine is a great human catastrophe. Russia once again violates international rules of the game and international law. The situation is very serious, of course, for the Ukrainian people, but also for the whole of Europe. Ukraine is not a member of NATO, but we have a moral responsibility to support what we can without triggering a major war and without having to fear Putin's red lines. The western world must draw its own red line and set premises. Russia's tyrant cannot escape such an unprovoked, brutal war crime. What kind of precedent would that create? And who can say he would stop there? Who said "never again"?

Norske myndigheter har gjort en stor urett mot det ukrainske minnet.  Den innsatsen ukrainerne gjorde for Norge under 2. verdenskrig er aldri blitt verdsatt av norske myndigheter.  Tvert i mot, minnesmerkene som ukrainere selv reiste dagene etter krigen ble ødelagt av norske myndigheter som en del av Aksjon Asfalt.  De ble sprengt, knust og tilintetgjort.

Prosecuting heads of state for wars of aggression is a nut of international law, which has not been broken since the court settlement after World War II. But there may be a solution.
