When Russia illegally invaded Ukraine on 24 Feb 2022, Putin spoke to Russian citizens. He said "Our plans do not include the occupation of Ukrainian territories. We are not going to impose anything on anyone by force" There are many reports of war crimes by Russia. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/2/24/putins-speech-declaring-war-on-ukraine-translated-excerpts https://www.hrw.org/news/2022/04/03/ukraine-apparent-war-crimes-russia-controlled-areas https://press.un.org/en/2022/ga12407.doc.htm https://newlinesinstitute.org/genocide/the-russian-federations-escalating-commission-of-genocide-in-ukraine-a-legal-analysis/
