Russia is working on new children exchange with Ukraine, RIA reports ...Middle East

News by : (Daily Sun) -

“We have a clear presidential mandate that we work only with full-fledged legal representatives, that is, relatives, parents who have legal force and can take care of their children,“ commissioner Maria Lvova-Belova told RIA in an interview.

Moscow and Kyiv have carried out several exchanges of children for reunification with their families since Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022.

Ukraine says over 19,500 children have been taken to Russia or Russian-occupied territory without the consent of family or guardians during the war, calling the abductions a war crime that meets the U.N. treaty definition of genocide.

According to data released last week by the U.N. refugee agency UNHCR, about 10.6 million people have been forced from their homes, seeking safety either within Ukraine or abroad since the start of the war.

In March 2023, the International Criminal Court issued warrants for the arrest of Lvova-Belova and President Vladimir Putin related to the abduction of Ukrainian children. Russia denounced the warrants as “outrageous and unacceptable”.
