| Subject: Russia’s forced transfer of Ukraine children ‘genocide’: Council of Europe Sat Apr 29, 2023 1:21 am | |
| Russia’s forced transfer of Ukrainian children amounts to genocide, the Council of Europe said Thursday (27 April) in a resolution adopted by its parliamentary assembly.
Calling for the safe return of the children to Ukraine, the parliament said “the documented evidence of this practice matches with the international definition of genocide”.
The vote was passed with 87 votes to one against, with one abstention. Linda Hofstad Helleland from EPP, Norway voted against, while Harald Weyel from AfD, Germany, abstained (see the vote of all participants).
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy hailed the resolution as an “important” decision that will help “hold Russia and its leaders to account”.
