Zelensky Furious As Amnesty International Accuses Ukraine Of Using Its Citizens As Human Shields

“Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has furiously lashed out at Amnesty International after it accused his forces of violating international law and endangering civilians in their defence against Russia’s on-going invasion.

In a report on Thursday, Amnesty listed incidents in 19 cities and towns in which Ukrainian forces appeared to have put civilians in harm’s way by establishing bases in residential areas – findings Zelensky equated to victim blaming.

The rights group, he said, had sought to offer ‘amnesty (to) the terrorist state and shift the responsibility from the aggressor to the victim’.

‘There is no condition, even hypothetically, under which any Russian strike on Ukraine becomes justified. Aggression against our state is unprovoked, invasive and terrorist,’ Zelensky added in his evening address.

‘If someone makes a report in which the victim and the aggressor are supposedly equal in some way… then this cannot be tolerated.’
