Let's put the situation in #Russia into perspective...

#WagnerGroup has as many troops as a fully mobilized 24th Infantry Division when they were active. (source @DefenceHQ ) ...50,000 troops

This is a very serious situation developing. #Russian

[New York Center for Foreign Policy Affairs @nycfpa]

Furthermore, #WagnerGroup was very much a part of / complicit in the war crimes committed in #Ukraine. The use of private military contractors blurs accountability & undermines international norms. It is crucial to address the issue & promote transparency in military operations.

[New York Center for Foreign Policy Affairs @nycfpa]

While the #WagnerGroup is defying the leadership of a government that has committed SERIOUS WAR CRIMES...they are by no means the heroes here. Wagner forces have committed war atrocities in place like Africa, Syria, and been illegally involved global conflicts for years. #Russia

[New York Center for Foreign Policy Affairs @nycfpa]

The Center is monitoring the current situation in #Russia closely. The situation developing in #Rostov is serious. We are hopeful that this action does not further the unnecessary loss of civilian life in a region already torn by war crimes. #WagnerGroup #Kremlin #Ukraine

We are hopeful that both sides involved with the unrest and unnecessary violence in #Sudan uphold this #ceasefire and allow discussions and diplomacy to replace firearms and ordnance. @SUNA_AGENCY @SudanEmbassyUSA @StateDept @POTUS

[New York Center for Foreign Policy Affairs @nycfpa]

The decision by the @StateDept to evacuate embassy personnel from the U.S. Embassy in Khartoum is deeply troubling. BOTH SIDES MUST CALL FOR #PEACE ! A CIVILIAN GOV'T MUST BE ESTABLISHED #Sudan

The NYCFPA statement marking 365 days since the illegal Russian aggression in #Ukraine . We call on the @WhiteHouse @NATO @EU_Commission @UN to immediately hold Russia accountable for their war crimes and their violations of international law involving their aggression.

@RussianEmbassy @mfa_russia @mod_russia @DefenceHQ @FCDOGovUK @BBCWorld @Telegraph @guardian @FT @TheEconomist @Daily_Express This is an outright lie. There is NO EVIDENCE of such. As a member of the diplomatic corps, you have a responsibility to deal in facts..and not lies.

[Secretary Antony Blinken @SecBlinken]

We commend the OSCE’s efforts to expose and document Russia’s war crimes, atrocities, and abuses in Ukraine. The OSCE and the principles of the Helsinki Final Act are fundamental to the rules-based international order, and one year in our commitment to Ukraine remains rock-solid.

Our prayers go out to President Jimmy Carter and the entire Carter family. His legacy as a humanitarian and steward of democracy will remain for generations to come. #jimmycarter

@VP Harris' comments are the stark reality that these war crimes conducted by Vladimir Putin and the Russian Government are not only going to continue, BUT EVEN BECOME MORE BRUTAL. Charges should be brought before the #ICC in The Hague of IMMEDIATELY and with Global Support!

[New York Center for Foreign Policy Affairs @nycfpa]

Russia's flagrant disregard for international law and human life in Ukraine is unacceptable. The world must come together to condemn their brutal war crimes and demand justice for the innocent victims. #RussiaWarCrimes #Ukraine #StopTheViolence

We are deeply saddened by the news of the death of Pete Reed, an US humanitarian aid worker in Ukraine. Our thoughts & prayers go out to Pete's family and @GRM_Global. We honor Pete for his selfless commitment to helping those in need & for his courage in the face of danger

[Global Response Medicine @GRM_Global]

Yesterday, GRM founder Pete Reed was killed in Bakhmut, Ukraine. Pete was the bedrock of GRM, serving as Board President for 4 years. In January, Pete stepped away from GRM to work with Global Outreach Doctors on their Ukraine mission and was killed while rendering aid. #Ukraine

(2/2) We must never forget the darkness of that time, and we must use this day to ensure that such events are never repeated. Let us use this day to stand in solidarity against hatred and bigotry, and to always strive to make the world a brighter, more tolerant place.

(1/2) Today marks the 76th anniversary of Holocaust Remembrance Day, a day to honor and remember the millions of innocent lives lost in the Holocaust and to reflect on the tragic events of the past... #HolocaustRemembranceDay
