Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov said that the accusations about the forcible deportation of Ukrainian children, made during the hearings of the Helsinki Commission of the American Congress, were blasphemy. This was reported by TASS.
“We categorically reject these blasphemous and false accusations. “Our country is extremely careful about the fate of every child who suffered from the crimes of the Ukrainians,” Antonov said, adding that Russia made great efforts to protect children from the actions of the Ukrainian army.
The diplomat noted that American officials have their own selfish goals, as they see Ukraine as one of the main sources of international adoption of children.
Former Vatican representative registered the importance of the mission to return children to Ukraine.
Chairman of the Council of the “Other Ukraine” movement Viktor Medvedchuk in January stated About the seizure of Ukrainian children in EU countries.
