Russia is turning the children of Ukraine into tools of war, - OP

This is reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to the Telegram of the Advisor on Communications to the Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, Dariya Zarivna.

"Yesterday, I participated in a panel discussion "Kidnapped to Kill: The Weaponization of Ukraine’s Children by Russia" at the Ukrainian House in Davos. I discussed Russia’s systematic strategy concerning Ukrainian children. These are not just random abductions - this is an intentional policy of destroying Ukraine’s future. The Russian Federation is turning our children into instruments of war through three brutal stages: physical abduction, erasure of identity, and militarization," Zarivna noted.

The panel discussion also included speeches from prominent Ukrainian and international experts - Lady Helena Kennedy, renowned British human rights lawyer and co-chair of the International Expert Group Bring Kids Back UA, Nathaniel Raymond from the Yale Humanitarian Research Lab, Mykola Kuleba, founder of the "Save Ukraine" fund, and Kajsa Ollongren, former Minister of Defence of the Netherlands.

"As of today, under the Bring Kids Back UA initiative, we have already returned 1,037 children. Thousands of Ukrainian children remain in Russia or in occupied territories, suffering from systematic indoctrination and militarization. We are working to bring them all back," added the advisor to the Head of the President’s Office.
