The petition "Russia's Genocide against Ukraine" is an important step in appealing to every person on planet Earth to recognize the crimes that Russia has committed and is committing against Ukraine as genocide.
The goal: to show support and call on the international community to recognize Russia's actions against Ukraine as genocide. We believe that this is an important step in ensuring moral justice, protecting human rights and preventing future crimes against humanity.
Description of the problem: Ukraine has been a victim of aggression by Russia since 2014. Russia annexed Crimea and supported separatist movements in eastern Ukraine. These actions led to thousands of deaths, massive human rights violations, destruction of property, and a humanitarian crisis. This must be seen as a systematic attempt to destroy the Ukrainian people.
We ask the international community: We call on governments, international organizations, human rights organizations and civil society to recognize Russia's actions against Ukraine as genocide. This is an important step to ensure justice and accountability and to prevent similar crimes in the future.
Call to Action: We call on everyone who supports the cause of truth and justice to join this petition and join the global movement to ensure recognition of Russia's genocide against Ukraine. With our voices, we can change the world and end impunity for crimes against humanity.
Completion: Signatures and support for this petition will be forwarded to relevant governments, international organizations and justice bodies to recognize Russia's genocide against Ukraine and take appropriate action.
This petition acts as a means of public pressure and expression of support to achieve the goal of recognizing the genocide and ensuring justice for the victims of Russia's aggression against Ukraine.

Original
The petition to recognize Russia's genocide against Ukraine has several important aspects:
Moral justice. Genocide recognition is recognition and celebration of the suffering and losses of the Ukrainian people. This is important from a moral point of view, as it allows victims to be honored and wounds to heal.
Truth and historical justice. Genocide recognition is evidence-based and confirms historical truth. This helps to avoid distortion of facts and misinterpretation of events.
Legal protection and liability. Acknowledging genocide leads to the legal responsibility of those who committed the crimes. This can have practical consequences, such as the investigation of crimes, the conviction of the guilty and the just punishment.
Preventing future crimes. Genocide recognition has preventive significance as it can serve as a signal to other countries and governments that such crimes will not be tolerated. This can help prevent similar situations in the future.
International pressure and solidarity. Genocide recognition attracts the attention of the international community and mobilizes solidarity with Ukraine. This may encourage other countries to adopt sanctions and other measures against Russia in order to stop further aggression and protect people's rights.
It is worth noting that the petition itself does not recognize genocide. It is a means of public expression of support and pressure on governments and international organizations to conduct an objective investigation and recognize the genocide if sufficient evidence is found.
