Russia still holds an untold number of abducted Ukrainian children

Excerpt

As negotiations continue between Russia and Ukraine, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is pushing for the return of thousands of kidnapped Ukrainian children.

Earlier this month in Istanbul, Russia acknowledged deporting children from eastern Ukraine.

U.S. senators have introduced a bipartisan resolution calling for the return of Ukrainian children abducted by Russia. President Trump should do more to help bring these kids home.
