On Monday, September 12, it was revealed that deputies from 18 Russian districts of Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Kolpino had signed a document asking for Putin to be tried by the State Duma for treason and forced to resign. They claimed that his views were ‘hopelessly outdated’, and, ‘detrimental to the future of Russia and its citizens’.
One paragraph of the document read: “On February 24, 2022, the Russian leadership, led by Vladimir Putin, launched an aggressive invasion of Ukraine. The whole world looks upon this as a war crime committed by the entire Russian nation”.
