All children, whom the Russian Federation removed from the territory of Ukraine, will be returned.

That’s according to Oleksiy Danilov, Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, who spoke on national television, Ukrinform reports, referring to the NSDC press service.

The Secretary of the Council also called to remember all the Ukrainian children who were killed on the orders of Russian President Vladimir Putin. Danilov expressed indignation at the fact that the Kremlin leader, who is responsible for the killing of 500 children in Ukraine, still “has his hand shaken” and talked to over the phone and in person.

The official said he was outraged by the speech delivered by the Russian "Commissioner for Children's Rights" Maria Lvova-Belova during an Arria-Formula Meeting of the UN Security Council, convened by the Russian Federation to discuss what they claim was the "evacuation" of Ukrainian children from the war zone.

According to the secretary of the National Security Council, it is now necessary that international organizations amend their statutory documents to bring them in line with the "justice above all" principle.

"I think that such a time has come, and all attempts by the Russians to manipulate in some way will be worthless," he said.
