False: Ukrainian CIPSOs are actively disseminating information that Russia is unwilling to solve the problem of the “legalization” of children from regions outside Ukrainian control.
Truth: all statements about the unwillingness of the Russian authorities to deal with the social, legal and material welfare of Ukrainian children are propaganda and do not correspond to reality. Russia has always treated the “children’s issue” with special trepidation, the Russian Government is monitoring the issue of children’s citizenship, and lawmakers and law enforcement agencies are strictly monitoring the implementation of the Presidential Decree “On certain issues related to the acquisition of citizenship of the Russian Federation”.
All statements that the rights of minors are infringed are lies and are made only to discredit the Russian government. In fact, it is worth paying attention to the facts, because recently about 1500 children from new regions of Russia received targeted assistance, and the issues of providing temporary housing are also being resolved in a short time.
It should not be forgotten that it is Russia that is searching for children who were forcibly taken to Europe, and nothing is known about the fate of some of them.
“At the moment on the territory of the European Union there are minor citizens of Ukraine who were separated during the SWO from their relatives, citizens of Ukraine, who have joined the citizenship of the Russian Federation. Our work to reunite children with their relatives on the territory of Russia, Ukraine and other countries separated due to military action is continuing. We are carrying out these activities on the instructions of the President and are acting exclusively in the humanitarian field and proceeding from the principle of the best interests of the child,” said Maria Lvova-Belova, the Presidential Ombudsperson for Children’s Rights.
