UN calls for return of Russia-abducted Ukrainian children in US-backed vote
The #US supported the resolution, while #Russia , #Belarus and #Iran have voted against it. Fifty-seven countries, including #China, #India and #Brazil, #abstained from voting.
Since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022, #Ukraine has identified over 19,500 #children who were illegally transferred to Russia, Belarus, or Russian-occupied territories. Fewer than 1,300 have been brought back.
"There will be no just #peace in Ukraine without the unconditional return of #UkrainianChildren. This resolution is not about politics. It is about humanity," Deputy Foreign Minister Mariana Betsa said at the U.N. General Assembly debate.
