Kidnapping allegations – Russia took 730,000 children from eastern Ukraine

Date:

According to its own statements, Russia has taken in more than five million refugees from eastern Ukraine since the start of the war in Ukraine. 730,000 children are among those fleeing the Donbass, Russia’s children’s rights commissioner Maria Lvova-Belowa said on Tuesday.

According to Lwowa-Belowa, the children came to Russia with their parents or legal guardians.

Criminal Court raises serious charges
Kidnapping allegations dismissed. She is not aware of a single case where a child from eastern Ukraine has been separated from her relatives and given to foster care, she said, responding to allegations from the International Criminal Court (ICC), which issued arrest warrants on March 17 . issued against himself and the Russian by President Vladimir Putin.

Illegal deportation?
It concerns the suspected war crime of illegal deportation of children from areas in Ukraine occupied by Russian forces. The children’s rights commissioner said the allegations were false and unclear. The ICC said it had information that hundreds of children had been abducted from orphanages and children’s homes in Russian-occupied territories in Ukraine. Some of these children were put up for adoption in Russia. Russia does not recognize the criminal court – nor does the US and China.

The Children’s Rights Commission itself said that Donetsk and Luhansk had asked Russia to take in civilians, including orphans and children whose parents were missing. The two eastern Ukrainian regions of Donetsk and Luhansk together form industrial Donbass and are partly under the control of Russian forces.

With regard to the allegations made by the criminal court, the committee stated that it was unclear what they actually consisted of and what they were based on. “The use of the phrase ‘unlawful deportation of population (children)’ in the ICC’s official statement creates confusion.” The Commission has not received any documents from the ICC.
