Today the world marks the World Day Against Trafficking In Persons, established by a United Nations resolution and first observed in 2014. This year's global campaign for World Day against Trafficking in Persons urges accelerated action to end child trafficking. The Russian occupation regime has systematically organised the mass forced deportation of Ukrainian children from the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine and sent them to various, primarily remote regions of the Russian Federation. The Kremlin regime created at least 70 camps or other institutions on the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine where Russians forcibly "re-educate" deported Ukrainian children to deprive them of their national identity. The Moscow minions distort the facts about the Russian war against Ukraine; teach the children Russian language and culture; and forbid them to speak Ukrainian or display any Ukrainian symbols.
