The Trump administration has been engaged in a concerted effort to undo initiatives aimed at holding Russia and its leaders and allies accountable for alleged war crimes in Ukraine. Since taking office, the administration has moved to withdraw from an international group led by the European Union that was created to punish Moscow for violating international law in its invasion of Ukraine. The White House has also reduced the work of the Justice Department's War Crimes Accountability Team and dismantled a program to seize assets of sanctioned Russian oligarchs. And in a previously unreported move, it has vacated a coordinator position - mandated by law - to gather intelligence from across the government on Russian atrocities committed in Ukraine

Trump/Russia was not a hoax.
