Russian Nobel Peace laureate slams against Putin’s ‘insane and criminal war’ on Ukraine.
Russian Nobel Peace Prize laureate Yan Rachinsky slammed Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “insane and criminal” act toward Ukraine in his award acceptance speech in the capital of Norway, Oslo on Saturday.
Rachinsky, who is from Russia’s human rights organization Memorial, claimed that resistance to Russia is known as “fascism” under Putin, stating that it has been “the ideological justification for the ferocious and criminal war of aggression against Ukraine.”
Memorial, one of Russia’s most renowned and respected human rights organizations, worked to expose the abuses and atrocities of the Stalinist time over three decades - before it was ordered to shut down by the country’s Supreme Court late in the last year.
Ukrainian Nobel Peace Prize laureate Oleksandra Matviichuk also called for an international tribunal against Putin. Also, Belarusian strongman Alexander Lukashenko in order to establish justice over “war crimes” in her award receiving text.
Matviichuk, who received the award on behalf of her very own human rights organization, the Center for Civil Liberties in Ukraine, said this would be a good way to “ensure justice for those affected by the war.”
Matviichuk warned that war criminals should not only be convicted after the fall of authoritarian regimes, saying - “justice can not wait.”
Human rights groups from Russia and Ukraine – Memorial and the Center for Civil Liberties – were officially honored with the Nobel Peace Prize for 2022 on Saturday, along with the jailed Belarusian lawyer Ales Bialiatski. Bialiatski’s spouse collected his award on his behalf at the ceremony. The three winners will share the prize money of 10 Million Swedish Krona (equivalent to 900,000 USD).
The new laureates were admired for “an outstanding effort to document war crimes, human right abuses and the abuse of power” in their respective countries.
