The head of state said that with his report AI was trying to "amnesty" the terrorist country and shift the responsibility from the aggressor to the victim.

“There is no and can not be hypothetical-no condition under which any Russian blow in Ukraine becomes justified. Aggression against our country is nothing provoked, invaded and frankly terrorist. And if someone makes a report in which the victim and the aggressor are allegedly the same, if any victim information is analyzed and what the aggressor was doing at this time is ignored, then it is impossible to put up with it, ”Zelensky said.

The President recalled that Russian blows have damaged or destroyed almost 200 temples and prayer houses, more than 2,200 educational institutions, and almost 900 medical institutions. The invaders deliberately fired people for water, evacuation buses, public transport stops and struck even the Holocaust victims and cemeteries, as well as a explosion in a camp with prisoners of war in Olenivka, but the report was not mentioned.

He added that anyone who artificially creates such an information context and hints that the strikes of terrorists are allegedly justified or understandable, "cannot help but be aware of what terrorists help. " "… If such manipulative reports, then you share the responsibility for the death of people with them," Zelensky summed up.

Earlier, the International Human Rights Organization of Amnesty International has accused Ukraine of “violating the laws of war” due to the alleged deployment of military bases in residential areas, schools and hospitals. The Ukrainian Office of Amnesty International reported that it was not related to fixing such facts and that a separate team of response department of Amnesty International crisis was engaged in preparation of the report.
