UN is investigating sexual crimes by Russian soldiers

So UN has recieved several cases conserning sexual crimes russian soldiers have done in Ukraine. It is not only women and girls they have raped also men and boys too. Ugliness of this Putin´s "special operation" is showing its face to the World. Harassment, torture and mass rape have included people of all ages.
USSR signed Geneva agreement 1952 but in 2019 Putin announced Russia’s withdrawal from the Additional Protocol on the Protection of Victims in International Armed Conflict. There is something wrong in Russia when it comes to violence as 2017 Russia removed penal code for domestic violence, so in Russia man can beat the woman in home as much as he likes ( i believe some does )

Men and boys are among the alleged victims of rape by Russian soldiers in Ukraine, where dozens of cases of sexual violence by the invading forces are already under investigation, UN and Ukrainian officials said on Tuesday.

“I have received reports, not yet verified … about sexual violence cases against men and boys in Ukraine,” said Pramila Patten, UN special representative on sexual violence in war, at a press conference in Kyiv.

“My promise to you is that international law will not be an empty promise. Today’s documentation will be tomorrow’s prosecution. And I want you to know that your rights don’t end when wars begin,” she said.

UNITED NATIONS

This is the same United Nations that had Saudi Arabia as a member of its human rights council? While Saudi Arabia was executing children, mutilating criminals, and stoning women to death for disobeying their husbands?

Asking for a friend.

Flashback 2020
Sexual abuse by UN peacekeepers is shocking and shameful. Why does it persist?

Every year or so, allegations of sexual misconduct by peacekeepers deployed under the United Nations flag ricochet around global media, shocking international audiences.

A few months ago, a report revealed that Burundian peacekeepers deployed in Central African Republic (CAR) have been extensively involved in the sexual exploitation and abuse of women and children.

It led to heartfelt statements about how such abuses will not be tolerated; how they undermine the capacity and credibility of the UN and its peacekeeping efforts.

The scandal surrounding revelations in 2015 of the violent sexual abuse of children in CAR by peacekeepers from France, Chad and Equatorial Guinea was also followed by such statements, and the adoption of Security Council Resolution 2272, which gives the Secretary-General authority to repatriate peacekeeping units or contingents where there is credible evidence of systemic or widespread sexual exploitation and abuse.

And yet, despite extensive documentation and investigations into the abuses perpetrated by Burundian peacekeepers, the UN has not repatriated them, and abuses have been perpetrated in other contexts, including Liberia, Haiti, South Sudan and Mali.

Why is this the case? ----

It is

The game's also up considering the amount of statements by Ukrainian people saying that Azov and AFU forces have been doing the same as what's alleged against the Russian troops here, in fact Russian investigators have already got evidence supporting those claims.

The good old UN who only investigate crimes based on the side they like the most

Ah yes sexual allegations because they are Russians. Not the first time either the so called pure Western countries like the US or their sides during a war had never committed such a thing.

The Ukrainian forces would never do such a thing a right.

The same UN which accused Libya of doing the same allegations but had never found those claims to be true.

There's been rape in every war ever conducted on this planet. You don't think Americans raped in Iraq and Afghanistan?

That being said, Russia's war in Ukraine has no logical reason except greed and Putin has lost his grasp on reality.
