U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland jetted into Ukraine on Tuesday in a surprise visit for talks with prosecutors on Russian war crimes.
The top U.S. law enforcement official made the unannounced trip to the war-ravaged country to discuss efforts hold Russia accountable for the unprovoked invasion of its neighbor.
“The United States is sending an unmistakable message: There is no place to hide,” Garland said. “We will... make sure that those who are responsible for these atrocities are held accountable.”
