Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I won't repeat the question, but I want to say on the record that Conservatives are supportive of and have called for the lifting of the visa requirement as well. It was part of a comprehensive statement that we released on the weekend. Hopefully the government will respond to the calls from multiple opposition parties.
I was going to ask Mr. Rae about his views on war crimes committed by Mr. Putin and by other actors within the Russian military. He has said that he believes that war crimes have taken place. I'd like some clarity from officials on whether that was a personal view or the government's view and what the government's view is with respect to whether Mr. Putin is a war criminal and whether war crimes have been committed in the context of this conflict.
