Even as the International Criminal Court has issued an arrest warrant for Russian Chief of Staff Valery Gerasimov for alleged crimes against humanity, Vladimir Putin has decorated him with the “Order of Courage.”
This chilling contrast exposes the impunity enjoyed by Russia’s military leaders. At the very moment international justice seeks to hold perpetrators accountable for attacks on civilians, Moscow elevates them as heroes.
It is not only a diplomatic provocation but also a devastating message to victims: their suffering is denied, their tormentors glorified.
In the face of this, mobilization is vital. Every donation you make helps us document these crimes, support investigations, and assist victims. Together, we can fight against both oblivion and injustice.
