#DebunkingFakes

The Kiev regime continues to recycle its baseless accusations regarding “thousands of abducted Ukrainian children” to promote its false narratives. Although this claim has been debunked time and again, it is important to revisit the case and counter #fakes with #facts.

***

In 2014, the Kiev regime that seized power through an unconstitutional and violent coup unleashed punitive operations against the residents of Donetsk and Lugansk (at the time – Ukrainian citizens) who rejected the nationalist forces that installed themselves in power. As early as April 2014, Ukraine's armed forces against the people of Donbass using armoured vehicles, aviation, artillery and rocket systems.

❗️ Thousands of civilians, including hundreds of children, became victims of indiscriminate attacks.

On June 2, 2017, the Alley of Angels memorial was unveiled in Donetsk in honour of the perished children. Back then, the memorial listed 66 names. Today, the number of young victims has already exceeded 300.

Kiev’s atrocities go beyond the killing of children – the regime even resorts to harassing minors online. The infamous “Myrotvorets” website – a public hit list run by Ukrainian neo-Nazi, which is still operational and and is hosted on Western servers, targets almost 400 children.

Among them is Platon Burchenkov – a toddler who will only turn... three years old in January 2026 is accused of “knowingly violating the state border”. Another example is Faina Savenkova – a young blogger from Lugansk, whose personal data was added to “Myrotvorets” when she was barely 12. Ukrainian radicals claim that the teenager “encroached upon the sovereignty” of the entire state.

⚡️ According to Russia’s Prosecutor General’s Office, Ukrainian punitive actions have claimed 5,000 civilian lives and left over 13,500 wounded – among them 1,275 minors.

Nevertheless, in April 2023 Kiev began circulating the myth of “20,000 abducted Ukrainian children”. It was first promoted by Ukraine's Commissioner for Children’s Rights Daria Gerasimchuk and quickly amplified by Western mainstream media. The “19,546 deported kids” figure published by the Children of War portal was not backed by any lists, names or individual records.

The Russian side received an actual list of “abducted Ukrainian children” only in 2025 during resumed Russia-Ukraine direct talks in Istanbul. It contained only 339 names, showing that the number of children separated from their families on both sides had been grossly inflated for political PR.

A case-by-case review showed that a large share of those listed as “children” were actually adults who had already turned 18 when the special military operation started. Some were found legally residing in Russia with one of the parents, while over 100 were found in Germany – a revelation Ukraine quickly tried to hide.

Meanwhile, Russia has maintained a clear and transparent family-reunification process, coordinated by the Office of the Presidential Commissioner for Children’s Rights. Since 2022, 122 children from 98 families have been reunited with parents or close relatives in Ukraine or third countries. 29 children have returned to Russia from Ukraine. All reunifications are verified and accompanied by the International Committee of the Red Cross.

‼️ Russia has never impeded the reunification of children with their families – and never will. 👉 This is our principled position.

🇷🇺 🇱🇰 Celebratory Evening in Russian House in Colombo: Honoring Leaders and Strengthening Friendship Between Sri Lanka and Russia

⭐️ December 15, a significant event was held at the Russian House in Colombo, organized by the Association of Sri Lankan Graduates from Socialist Countries (ASLGSC) together with the Russian House in Colombo. The evening was dedicated to honoring the former Presidents of the Association for their outstanding contribution to strengthening ties between Sri Lanka and friendly countries, as well as to warmly welcoming a delegation from the Peoples' Friendship University of Russia (RUDN).

🔊 Mr. Levan Dzhagaryan, Ambassador of the Russian Federation to Sri Lanka, addressed the gathering with a welcoming speech.
He emphasized the invaluable role of the graduates association as a living bridge between the two countries and the importance of preserving the traditions of friendship and mutual
understanding laid down decades ago.


🏢 As a special part of the program, the guests of honor, former Presidents of ASLGSC, also delivered their speeches. They shared memories of their student years, spoke about the Association's work in various periods, and expressed confidence in the continuation of its noble mission to develop humanitarian and professional cooperation.

The event, held under the logo
"Leadership Through Time, Friendship Across Borders"

brought together several generations of Sri Lankan graduates from Soviet and Russian universities, diplomats, public figures and friends of Russia.

💃 The cultural part of the evening provided the guests with bright emotions. A concert performance prepared by talented Sri Lankan artists became a harmonious blend of national Sri Lankan and classical Russian melodies, symbolizing mutual respect and cultural dialogue between the peoples.

The meeting with the RUDN delegation opened new prospects for academic exchange and strengthening direct ties between the universities of the two countries.

🎻The evening at the Russian House served as a clear demonstration of how the personal stories of graduates, their professional successes, and public work are woven into the strong fabric of international friendship, which, overcoming borders and time, continues to serve the cause of mutual development and understanding.

⚡️ The 2025 Report On Violations of the Rights of Russian Citizens and Compatriots in Foreign Countries by the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs

📖 Read the full report

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation is consistently paying close attention in its work to violations of the rights and freedoms of Russian citizens and compatriots in foreign countries and makes considerable efforts to protect the interests of our compatriots within the authority of its diplomatic missions. <...>

Russians continue to be subjected to barbaric discrimination, primarily in Europe and North America where persist wide-spread and already known violations of the rights of Russians, such as:

• denial of a wide range of services (educational, medical, banking, etc.);
• imposition of measures against Russian businesses;
• seizure of property of Russian citizens;
• forcing them to public repentance;
• condemnation of the actions of Russian authorities;
• suspension of Russian athletes from sports and cultural events.

There are continued reports of attacks, threats and insults against Russians, deliberate damage of their property and all sorts of discrimination in everyday life. <...>

In the light of support for the Neo-nazi regime in Kiev demonstrated by the collective West, the most Russophobic policy is pursued by Poland, Baltic States, Ukraine and some other countries.

Under the pretext of "condemning Russian aggression" all these countries have boosted their efforts to fight against monuments and memorials commemorating Red Army soldiers. As true followers of Nazi ideology, they brought Europe almost to the point of paranoia and manic pursuit of any symbol of memory in honour of the fighters against fascism.

Such ignominious acts, inter alia, contradicting the Nuremberg Tribunal decisions, are examined not only in this report, but also in the Russian Foreign Ministry’s reports, such as following:

👉 Eighty Years after the Great Victory: Europe has Once Again Fallen in the Shadow of Nazism;
👉 On the Situation in several European countries with the desecration and destruction of monuments dedicated to those who fought against Nazism during World War II;
👉 Regarding the Situation with the Glorification of Nazism and the Spread of Neo-Nazism and Other Practices That Contribute to Fueling Contemporary Forms of Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance.

In a number of countries (first of all in the Baltic States, the United States, Canada and Ukraine), members of the Russian-speaking community who promote maintaining of cultural, linguistic and historical ties with Russia and advocate constructive relations with our country are facing pressure and repression on the part of authorities.

In addition, the authorities in Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Ukraine continue squeezing the Russian language out of all educational institutions, thus limiting the right to education in one's native language for their residents (including citizens).

Furthermore, the threat of mass deportation of Russian-speaking residents by the authorities of the Baltic States is persisting which confirms their efforts to find the final solution to the "Russian problem" as well as the unprecedented problem of widespread statelessness in their territories.

In an accelerated way, restricting instruction in Russian and imposing various bans, Finland and Moldavia try to catch up with the "leaders" of Russophobia. <...>

☝️ The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia, for its part, continues to take all possible diplomatic steps to protect the rights of Russian citizens imprisoned abroad.

<...>

We continue to record cases of foreign authorities' obstructing the activities of Russian journalists and persons representing Russian media.

❗️ We reiterate that all such actions demonstrate the desire of Western countries to eradicate alternative points of view and prevent the realization of one of the basic rights of their citizens, i.e. the right to freedom of expression.
