In the Russian Federation will be issued citizenship to Ukrainian children: the Foreign Ministry reacted in

The ministry says that such actions of Russia are a violation of humanitarian law and forcibly displaced Ukrainian children and will continue to remain citizens of Ukraine. On January 4, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered, according to which some Ukrainian children may be granted citizenship of the Russian Federation by his personal decision. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine says that this way children are deprived of the opportunity to return to Ukraine.

In fact, according to the new decree of the President of Russia, Russian citizenship will be able to obtain Ukrainian orphans and children of deprivation of parental care. Managers of Russian organizations who keep children from Ukraine may apply for joining Russian citizenship. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine emphasizes that Russia violates the rules of international law and law of children who have been forcibly taken to the Russian territory.

In addition, in this way in Russia is trying to improve demographic performance. "Such actions violate the rules of international humanitarian law, are void and do not create any legal consequences," the statement said. Also stolen Ukrainian children will continue to remain citizens of Ukraine. In addition, Ukraine will do everything to protect their legal rights and freedom. Actually, the new Russian decree is only evidence of crimes against Ukraine.

The Ministry called on the International Criminal Court (ISS) to pay attention to the forced granting of Russian citizenship to Ukrainian children. In particular, such actions are another sign of genocide. The Foreign Ministry also called on the international joint arrest of Vladimir Putin, according to the ICS Order. According to the Ombudsman Dmitry Lubin, granting Ukrainian citizenship it is necessary that there are no deported children in the Russian Federation.

In particular, children from Ukraine will be able to adopt Russian families and change personal data. It is noted that according to the new order for citizenship, applicants should not even indicate their contact information and residence. Only addresses and contacts at the place of work are enough. Lubinets stressed that over the next few months, there may be no Ukrainian children in Russia, as they will become Russians.

He also noted that he would do his best to have a reaction in both the country and the international arena. We will remind, recently from the Russian occupation Ukraine returned three more children, two of them - deprivation of parental care. The youngest boy is only 8 years old. After a full -scale offensive, he lived with a grandmother in the territory of Kherson region controlled by Russia. However, after the woman died, the baby was sent to the Russian children's boarding school.
