/ world today news/ The Americans continue to exaggerate the issue of creating an international court over Russia and its leaders. However, the question of precedent arose: the US would later be tried in the same way, only for real crimes.
Judge. But who?
The globalist elite, who see in Russia (and not in China, as many think) the main threat to their world domination and existence, are wondering and wild.
Americans are looking for different ways to destroy Russia. The military-economic path is only part of the “program”. According to The New York Times, “the Biden administration is calling for a joint tribunal for Ukraine and international allies to try Russian leaders for crimes of aggression.”
The State Department’s special envoy for global criminal justice (they have such a position!) Beth Van Schaak said that “the US administration supports the establishment of a national Ukrainian court in which the United States and other allies will assist Ukrainian prosecutors in bringing cases against Russian leaders for the crime of aggression”.
“We are determined to work with Ukraine and peace-loving countries around the world to take up the cause, staff and equip such a tribunal in such a way as to achieve full accountability for the international crimes committed in Ukraine,” she told the Conference on war crimes” in Washington.
So, among the possibilities considered is the creation of a certain legal platform for the legalization and justification of their hybrid war against Russia.
According to The New York Times, participants at the Washington conference “discussed various proposals to hold Russian leaders accountable for the war, including, on the one hand, the creation of a hybrid court based on the Ukrainian system with international elements, and, on the other hand, the creation of a purely international judicial body with jurisdiction over the crime of aggression”.
Speaking of the “Putin trial,” according to The New York Times, some U.S. lawyers “fear there is a fatal flaw in the plan: President Vladimir Putin could be granted immunity from prosecution” as long as he remains in power.
But this “disadvantage” is not the main one. In addition, according to the newspaper, Beth Van Schaak completely disavowed her statements and the statements of the US administration regarding the international trial against Russia.
“By setting clear limits on how far the administration is willing to go, Ms. Van Schaak acknowledged her reluctance to set a precedent that would pave the way for a similar prosecution of American leaders,” The New York Times wrote.
Simply put, the American elite is afraid to open Pandora’s box. He is afraid of falling right into the hole he is digging for Russia. And there is a reason.
Partial list of crimes in the United States
Admittedly, compiling a list of war crimes committed by the US, even if only in the post-World War II period, is no easy task. He is very big.
We will not write how in the 19th century the USA “took” Florida from the Spanish, and Texas, California and other territories from the Mexicans, how they invaded Cuba and the like. Otherwise, you will end up with a multi-volume treatise.
We will limit ourselves to the striking facts after the Second World War, each of which separately led to prison, both for American presidents and for the heads of the Department of State, the Department of Defense and the CIA of the United States. This is by no means a complete list.

2014–2023 – Creation of an anti-Russian state in Ukraine. Waging a hybrid war against Russia to dismember and destroy it.
Doomsday for the US
It will be futile for the US to rely on its financial capabilities and “administrative resources” if the entire world demands judgment against it, its leaders and vassals, who are responsible for the death and suffering of hundreds of millions of people around the planet.
And the information capabilities of the Americans, who run the world’s major national publications, will not work either. That’s why US State Department Ambassador Beth Van Schaak says the precedent of organizing a “trial against Russia” would be dangerous for the United States.
The new, emerging world, in which there will be no US hegemony but very equal centers of power and influence, will definitely demand an account from the US. This judgment will not be demagogic and it is not a judgment of history because the judgment of history actually took place.
The living leaders of the entire Western world who issued criminal orders will be tried in a real court. Like the Nuremberg Trials. And the American frenzy in seeking means to destroy Russia, as a catalyst, only brings the day of that judgment closer.
