returning the stolen children report
A powerful campaign, #ReturnTheStolenChildren, has been launched with the Return The Children Now reception attended by over 250 people on 23 April 2025 and the publication of a comprehensive report on the matter, co-authored by UK Friends of Ukraine and Johanna Baxter MP.
The campaign demands urgent action to secure the return of thousands of Ukrainian children unlawfully taken by Russia. Backed by MPs, Peers, human rights leaders and international experts, the campaign exposes a vast and systematic effort by the Russian state to erase Ukrainian identity, by targeting its youngest citizens.
The report below calls for the following:
· Intensify sanctions on Russian and Belarusian officials and entities complicit in abductions;
· Demand justice through international legal bodies;
· Establish a UK National Day of Action to raise public awareness;
· Full investigation of whether these crimes meet the threshold of genocide under international humanitarian law;
Serious consideration to recognising it as a genocide.
