The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy believes that after the world learned of the crimes Russian troops committed in the Kyiv region, the Russians will attempt to cover up evidence of their actions in the future.

According to Zelenskyy: "We need to be aware that after the disclosure of the mass killings of civilians in the Kyiv region, the aggressors are likely to behave differently while committing their crimes in other parts of our country where they have gone.
They have already launched a false campaign to conceal their guilt in the massacre of civilians in Mariupol. They will produce dozens of staged interviews and re-edited recordings. They will purposely kill people to make it look like someone else killed them.
The aggressors will probably attempt to hide the evidence of their crimes. They failed to do this in Bucha when they retreated, but they are likely to do so in another area.
I want to say this right away: every normal person in the world understands who brought war and mass deaths to Ukrainian soil. There is ample evidence that it is Russian troops who are destroying peaceful cities: abducting, torturing and killing civilians."
