Agnes Callamard said: “The history of Russia’s military interventions be it in Ukraine or Syria, or its military campaign at home in Chechnya is tainted with blatant disregard for international humanitarian law.

Russian forces have launched indiscriminate attacks, used banned weapons and sometimes apparently deliberately targeted civilians and civilian objects a war crime,”

Agnes Callamard said: “It is frightening to imagine what scale the refugee crisis could reach in the event of escalating hostilities in Ukraine. It will be a continent-wide humanitarian disaster with millions of refugees seeking protection in neighbouring European countries,” “Ukraine is currently the destination for those seeking protection when fleeing from Russia, Belarus and Central Asian countries. Should Russia use military force against Ukraine, this will no longer be the case and they will have to seek refuge in other countries”
