The Abomination of Kidnapping
and Beating Children
Beating defenseless children is probably one of the vilest
crimes in society. It is categorically condemned by governments, courts, religions
and people of good will.
Not only has russia’s führer putin been labeled a war
criminal for kidnapping Ukrainian children and forcibly taking them to russia,
his evil, depraved minions have been beating and torturing them for saying “Slava
Ukrayini” – Glory to Ukraine.
According to the Daily Telegraph UK, russian authorities are
beating Ukrainian children as they attempt to “re-educate them” to become loyal
russians and to forget their parents and heritage, said one of more than a
dozen teenagers freed from moscow-run youth facilities after months of
negotiation.
The parents of the children transported to a youth camp on
the Black Sea peninsula last year managed to bring their children back to
Ukraine, the newspaper reported. The children, mostly teenagers, were living in
russia-occupied area of the Kherson and Kharkiv regions when local education
authorities suggested sending them to a summer camp in Crimea, which has been
controlled by russia since 2014.
Save Ukraine, the charity that organized the evacuation,
said it helped some parents to travel to Crimea, via Poland, belarus and russia
to retrieve their children. As expected, parents and children, who were seeing
their mothers and fathers for the first time in months, were seen hugging and
kissing as they arrived in Kyiv.
One boy spoke of his mistreatment during a television
interview. The teenager, who was not identified, said children from Kherson
were punished for expressing pro-Ukrainian views.
“We will take you to an orphanage, you will sit there and
understand everything,” the boy said a security officer had told him and other
teenagers. He also said he saw a bruise on the back of a teenage girl that had
been caused by a stick used by the officer to beat them.
The boy added that the camp’s director had told him his
parents had given him up for adoption. Distraught, he called his mother, who
called camp officials to tell them she had done no such thing. However,
administrators allegedly told her: “You’re not going to take them anyway. They
will be children of russia.”
Those who returned to Ukraine have spoken about the attempts
to re-educate the youths. At some camps, they were forced to learn by heart and
sing the russian national anthem and taught that Ukraine was part of russia.
The US State Department said there is mounting evidence that
russia’s actions reveals the kremlin’s aims to deny and suppress Ukraine’s identity,
history, and culture, which is an act of genocide. “The devastating impacts of
putin’s war on Ukraine’s children will be felt for generations,” the State
Department said.
At least 6,000 children from Ukraine have attended russian
“re-education” camps in the past year, with several hundred held there for weeks
or months beyond their scheduled return date, according to a new report published
in the US, The Guardian of Great Britain reported. These places focus on brainwashing,
torture, punishment and intimidation in order to change the youth’s mentality. The
Office of the Ukrainian Prosecutor General said in December 2022 that nearly
800 had died or disappeared during the process of deportation.
Russia has also unnecessarily expedited the adoption and
fostering of children from Ukraine in what could constitute a war
crime, the Yale Humanitarian Research Lab report found. The report was funded
by the State Department.
Every day reveals another detestable crime committed by russia. Its so-called soldiers are incompetent so they turn to bombing residential buildings, energy infrastructures, kidnapping children and killing and raping civilians and their offspring. The gallows is too merciful for Russians.
