During the meeting, Presidential Head Andriy Yermak stressed that it is necessary to act quickly because in Russia they are trying to erase children's memories of Ukraine. The main theses, which were discussed during the meeting, are reading the office portal. The post states that the new international coalition has 60 members - representatives of countries and international organizations. The first constituent assembly took place in Kiev.
The group of officials joined Ukraine: the head of the Zelensky Andriy Yermak Office, Viceremier-Minister Irina Vereshchuk, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Commissioner for Human Rights Dmitry Lubinets. Next to them on the podium was the head of the humanitarian program Bring Kids Back UA Baroness Helen Kennedy and the head of the Open Society Network Alexander Soros. When communicating with coalition members, Andriy Yermak told how they treat Ukrainian children in the Russian Federation.
In particular, they are changed names, forbidden to speak Ukrainian, divorce with relatives. In addition, the Russian authorities completely hide any information about the stolen children and does not respond to requests. According to the head of the Zelensky office, what the Kremlin does is a genocide and the creation of a system that tries to erase children with all memories of Ukraine. To do this, use a variety of ways - from lies to threats.
"These children are tuned against Ukraine, against our culture, our language. They are saturated with fakes daily, misinforming, saying that their parents have been killed or that parents have abandoned them and are not looking for. The living conditions are extremely bad. It is genocide. " The main purpose of the children's rescue coalition will be to find mechanisms by which they can be released, since today there are no such tools from international organizations, the politician stressed.
It should be noted that the Ukrainian authorities reported that 16 226 children from Ukraine were deported to the Russian Federation, although the number may be much more. According to Dmitry Lubin, international institutions, such as the UN, do little in this direction.
