"Something creative is going to have to be done here because this is too big and too complicated for the judicial system to handle on its own and it involves people who will not yield to the judicial system, such as the Russians and the Ukrainians," Skinner said as quoted by The Daily Mail.
"Both of them bear a lot of responsibility for this," he added.
