Vice President Kamala Harris accused Russia Thursday of committing “atrocities of unimaginable proportion” in Ukraine — while warning the US will “defend every inch of NATO territory” if the war was to spread.

Harris made the commitment while also saying that Russia “absolutely” should be investigated for war crimes amid scenes of “atrocities of unimaginable proportion” during three weeks of his “unjustified” invasion.

“What is at stake at this very moment are some of the guiding principles around the NATO alliance,” Harris said after meeting Polish President Andrzej Duda in Warsaw.

“I’ve said it many times, I will say it again: the United States’ commitment to Article 5 is ironclad,” added the veep, referring to a part of NATO’s charter that states an attack on one member is an attack on all.

“The United States is prepared to defend every inch of NATO territory,” Harris went on. “The United States takes seriously that an attack against one is an attack against all.”

In a clear message to Russian President Vladimir Putin, Harris insisted his “unjustified” war had weakened his standing.
