Marjorie Taylor Greene Defends Voting Against Ukraine War Crimes ProbeRepresentative Marjorie Taylor Greene defended voting against the investigation of potential war crimes being committed by Russian forces in Ukraine, suggesting that allowing for a probe from an international court would open floodgates for the prosecution of American service members.
"HR 7276 would hand over authority & our intelligence to the ICJ & ICC - international courts that could put our military on trial," Greene said in a Thursday statement. "I will not vote for globalism & the slow slide to become a one world government. I will only vote to protect America, our military, & our borders."
Greene was one of only seven Republicans who voted against the House bill this week, known as the Ukraine Invasion War Crimes Deterrence and Accountability Act, which would "collect, analyze, and preserve evidence and information related to war crimes and any other atrocities."
There have been growing calls from the international community to put Russian nationals on trial in the days following the revelations from Bucha, where hundreds of Ukrainians were killed in the Russian-occupied Kyiv suburb. President Joe Biden and members of Congress have been among those who are pushing for a war crimes trial against Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The UN is not some apolitical organization that is fair and even handed. Take a look at the vote to suspend Russia from the human rights commission. Should have been a no brainer. It passed with a minority of countries voting for suspension, because more countries abstained than voted for the suspension.
