When American and NATO soldiers trial for killing hundreds of thousand civilian in Afghanistan and Iraq.

He is saying, what Ukrainian army told him to say.

[diptodattachaudhuri]

How can this soldier tried for war crime? As a soldier he was merely following the order of his commander which he has to obey, that's a rule applicable for soldiers of army of all countries. It is unethical to use this soldier as tool for propaganda. If West has so much feelings for Ukraine, why don't they put their (NATO) soldiers on ground and fight boldly with Russia?

Wow this ain’t a war crime . If the civilian is giving information on positions he is no longer a civilian and now a soldier . Have you all forgot what America did in Vietnam ?

[mehboobmangera]

When the Ukrainian soldiers used they civilians as human shields what does one expect

[thepelican]

when you are in war, you can't save human rights, although killing civilians don't justifies

[ArabianKnight]

Also, one question should be asked wether the civilian was armed or not?

Zelenski didn't think arming civilians had terrible consequences....

You were given option to surrender, you fought, that is your sin
You could have saved their lives and still can reduce further losses.
This is no military mistake here at all. Can they retreat, NO.

That is very little time and thought, You really must be jo'king
