If we take what Putin says he wants to do at face value, it's at least an attempt of doing the modern definition of genocide. Like if we call Gaza a genocide, then clearly the parts of Ukraine that fell to Russia are experiencing something similar.
Personally I think the word genocide has been diluted and neither of those wars constitute a genocide, at least in the current stage. Many other kinds of criminal and evil though, sure.
Yeah. Sadly history has set the bar VERY high for what constitutes genocide which causes arguments about which modern issues we call genocide. I would say genocide requires systematic murder, whereas ethnic cleansing is cultural erasure etc.
