Tolo News: Maria Zakharova, spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry, said that Western countries, including the UK, have effectively obstructed investigations into war crimes committed by their military forces in Afghanistan. She added: “Despite public pressure, Western countries have practically delayed the judicial process for crimes committed during the occupation of Afghanistan, let alone compensating the victims’ families. In the case of the UK, a lot of information has recently been released about these horrific events, but there has been no progress in the investigation process.” Click here to read more (external link).
