Quote from Tasheva: "We understand that we will hold to account top officials and others who have facilitated the establishment of the occupation regime on the Crimean peninsula, committed international crimes and war crimes, and violated human rights… there will be no amnesty for them."

Details: Tasheva said that the majority of Crimea’s residents have nothing to do with Russia’s extensive war crimes.

"None of these people have anything to fear: they will not be held responsible for simply living under occupation," Tasheva explained.
