Harris says Russia should "absolutely" be investigated for war crimes

Vice President Kamala Harris on Thursday said Russia should "absolutely" be investigated for potential war crimes, stopping short of Polish President Andrzej Duda's assertion that Russia is "obviously" committing war crimes. 

Harris made the comments during a joint news conference in Poland, where she was meeting with Duda about the Ukraine crisis. This week, Ukraine called Russia's bombing a maternity hospital an "atrocity" and a war crime.

"Absolutely, there should be an investigation, and we should all be watching, and I have no question that the eyes of the world are on this war and what Russia has done in terms of this aggression and these atrocities," Harris said.
