> not expelling Ukrainians to resettle the place with "ethnic Russians"

The similarity might be stronger than you suspect. Russia abducts and transports Ukrainian children to controlled territories [0], and actively encourages its own citizens to relocate to captured Ukrainian areas through economic incentives, subsidized housing, and aggressive long-term repopulation strategies.

Kidnapping and moving children to new parents also counts as genocide under the convention on genocide.

		Ukraine is my pet war. I really hope we don’t get caught in the genocide-debate tar pit as well. What’s happening is evil. That’s relatable, both in the problem and potential solutions. Whether it’s genocide under some international convention strikes me as a counterproductive distraction that replaces something horrifying with something boring.
