Germany At UN Calls On Russia To Immediately Return Abducted Children To Ukraine

Germany raised concerns at the United Nations about Russia's systematic human rights abuses in Ukraine's temporarily occupied regions. Permanent Representative Ricklef Beutin addressed the General Assembly, condemning Russia's torture of prisoners of war, illegal detention of civilians, and forced displacement of Ukrainian children.

Beutin emphasized that these actions constitute crimes against humanity and called for an immediate, safe, and unconditional return of the abducted Ukrainian children to their families or legal guardians.
