Russian Ombudsman Tatyana Moskalkova, during a meeting with dictator Vladimir Putin, voiced another propaganda narrative, alleging that the Ukrainian military took children from Donbas to Germany. This was reported by the Center for Countering Disinformation of the NSDC, according to UNN.
Details
The Center emphasized that the evacuation of children from frontline territories was carried out due to the constant threat of Russian shelling and in accordance with the norms of international humanitarian law. At the same time, the Russian side provided no evidence for its accusations.
Such statements are an attempt by the Russian Federation to shift responsibility for its own crimes. After all, it was Russia that carried out the illegal deportation of Ukrainian children from the occupied territories, which led the International Criminal Court in The Hague to issue arrest warrants for Vladimir Putin and the Russian Children's Rights Commissioner Maria Lvova-Belova
Recall
Recently, the Council of the European Union and the Government of the United Kingdom strengthened sanctions against Russian entities and individuals involved in the deportation of Ukrainian children.
