Here's a question and response from Chatgpt (several other sources give a similar response). So, if you want to continue arguing with Chatgpt, knock your socks off:
Was russia's invasion of Ukraine legal?
Chatgpt response:
Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which began in February 2022, is widely regarded as a violation of international law, particularly the principles of the United Nations (UN) Charter. The UN Charter prohibits the use of force by one country against another, except in cases of self-defense or with the approval of the UN Security Council.
In this case, Russia's invasion of Ukraine has been widely condemned by the international community, and many nations, including those in the European Union, the United States, and others, argue that it was an illegal act of aggression. The UN General Assembly passed a resolution demanding that Russia withdraw its forces from Ukraine, and the International Criminal Court (ICC) has opened investigations into potential war crimes committed during the invasion.
From a legal standpoint, there is no clear justification under international law for Russia's actions, as Ukraine had not attacked Russia, and Russia's claims of protecting Russian-speaking populations and fighting against alleged threats were not recognized as valid grounds for military intervention under international law.
