2:23Now PlayingPolish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki on Monday called on European leaders to impose even heavier sanctions on Russia, saying negotiations with Moscow have not achieved anything.
He singled out a number of leaders at a news conference in Warsaw, including French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.
"How many times have you negotiated with (Vladimir) Putin? What have you achieved? Have you stopped any of these actions that took place," he asked of Macron.
"Criminals are not to be discussed and negotiated with. Criminals must be fought," Morawiecki continued.
He also said Germany in particular should do more to support sanctions.
"It is not the voices of German businesses, German billionaires, who are now holding you back from further actions, that should be heard loudly in Berlin today. It is the voice of these innocent women and children, the voice of those murdered," he said, addressing Scholz directly.
He also questioned why former Chancellor Angela Merkel had remained "silent" since the Russian invasion.
"It was Germany's policy in the previous years that led to the fact that Russia today has the strength resulting from the monopoly on the sale of raw materials. We have to speak out here and now, condemn it, admit that it was the wrong policy because we are dealing with terrible crimes, with the crime of genocide in the 21st century," Morawiecki said.
Ukrainian officials said the bodies of 410 civilians were found in towns around the capital, Kyiv, that were recaptured from Russian forces in recent days.
In Bucha, northwest of the capital, Associated Press journalists saw 21 bodies, including a group of nine in civilian clothes who appeared to have been shot at close range. At least two had their hands tied behind their backs.
