The reporter alleges that Russia has taken some 9000 children and it would seem that at least some of them have been undergoing Russian military training. While involuntary rounding up of Ukrainian children and deporting them to Russia or Russian occupied territories constitutes a war crime, let’s not forget that the USA, bastion of human liberty and rights, separated more than 5500 children from their parents at the border, beginning in 2017 through the period of the Trump administration. Families endured separation for years. As of 2022 some 545 children had not yet been reunited with their parents, and of that number, the whereabouts of 362 could no longer be traced. Children and families do not matter to fascists.
