As a signatory of the Joint Statement on the Forcible Transfer, Deportation, and Adoption of Children from Ukraine by Russia, GHR joins several of our partners and others in the care sector in condemning the forcible transfer, deportation and adoption of children from Ukraine, resulting in permanently separating children from their families, communities and culture.
We call upon the Russian authorities, including Russia’s Presidential Commissioner for Children’s Rights, to immediately cease these practices. Urgent efforts must be made to ensure these children are reunited with their families and can be raised by their own relatives in their own culture and communities, speaking their own language.
