What Constitutes Genocide?

Professor David A. Bell of Princeton writing in Substack in response to a charge of genocide made by Professor Timothy Snyder1 of Yale:

the geopolitical situation created by Putin’s invasion [of Ukraine] remains enormously dangerous, and we cannot only take into consideration the threat to the Ukrainians themselves when considering how to act. The war potentially threatens much more. The charge of genocide, however tempting it is to make, blinds us to this fact.

The war in Ukraine could spread and turn into a much larger conflict, that might include the use of nuclear weapons. There is much to consider
