Condemning Russia’s illegal abduction of Ukrainian children.
Whereas, since the Russian Federation’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the Russian Federation military forces and the Government of the Russian Federation have abducted, forcibly transferred, or facilitated the illegal deportation of at least 20,000 Ukrainian children; and
Whereas the Russian Federation’s abduction, forcible transfer, and facilitation of the illegal deportation of Ukrainian children has left countless children and families with devastating physical and psychological trauma: Now, therefore, be it
(1) condemns the Russian Federation’s abduction, forcible transfer, and facilitation of the illegal deportation of Ukrainian children; and
(2) implores the Russian Federation to work with the international community to ensure the return, without delay, of all forcibly transferred Ukrainian children to their families.
