wished for peace and support for the entire ukrainian people this year in their christmas speeches world leaders they recall the full-scale invasion of ukraine and the tragedies it led to. what politicians, monarchs and religious figures said in their addresses and what they wished for the main holiday for all christians, let's just listen now the year is coming to an end, which tested and saddened us all. we hoped for a return to normal life, but then there was a war in ukraine, a cruel and senseless war in which force rules instead of law. we witnessed ten months of hostilities that have already caused destruction and losses that are hard to

imagine in in our daily reality, we have experienced the suffering of the ukrainian people and continue to experience with deep sadness the loss of thousands of human lives, let us see the faces of our ukrainian brothers and sisters who are experiencing this christmas in the dark and cold far from their homes due to the devastation of 10 months of war, so this year, perhaps, our most fervent wish is for peace to reign again, it is not yet available to all of us, but it must be fair in such a way that it does not reward captured lands and does not subject people in ukraine despotism and violence on the part of the occupying forces in the country will continue and it must be peace with freedom, dignity and responsibility and the need for light, light is necessary to break through the confused darkness of ukrainian cities, may the lord inspire you

show concrete gestures of solidarity to help all those who suffer and let him enlighten the minds of those who have the power to silence the thunder of weapons and immediately stop this senseless war minusovka and the light that defeated the darkness well-known buildings in kyiv turned into art objects thanks to the light show from geri the hashtag's swiss father is known for his grand campaigns all over the world and decided to support ukraine and present christmas lights to all of us, the campaign was supposed to last three days, on friday they managed to sow andriivska church national museum of the history of ukraine bell towers of st. michael's gold tower and st. sophia cathedral on saturday the show had to be interrupted due to the tragic events in kherson where ten ukrainians were killed as a result of russian shelling and on christmas eve kyiv houses were once again turned into art objects, in particular the st. nicholas church was decorated with stars and doves peace. and the building of the central station of the capital was decorated with the coats of arms

of ukraine. the light was provided by a generator that henry specially purchased for this show. and together with his team, they deliberately refused to cozy christmas celebrations and with families as a sign of solidarity with ukrainians who were separated by the war. i feel your gratitude with all my heart. i decided to come here because i was lucky enough to visit 87 countries around the planet. i saw so many nations and cultures. and then i thought, why should i not to come here to you on christmas when you do not have enough energy to light such a light that will shine for the whole year and everyone will see what is happening on sunday in less than a week, on the night of next sunday we will meet the new year 2023 year, a year that should become victorious for ukraine, for this we all work together, we support our soldiers, we take our relatives and unite, ukrainians will not be broken and our truth will defeat

prepare fast food, get ready right now , we will defeat the darkness together, more than 13 thousand ukrainian children were kidnapped by the russians at the beginning of the war and taken to their country under the pretext of recuperating at sea and resting in camps. were returned, and children were taken out of orphanages and even maternity homes without any explanation, it is difficult to imagine what the children went through and it is scary to think where they might be now, but it is already clear that putin is carrying out his plan for such a deportation, the plan for genocide, the destruction of the ukrainian nation, and the topic is very complex, but it is necessary to talk about it, we

need to find answers to the questions of how to prevent this, how to look for children whose names russia changes their birth dates, and in general, where are they now? we will return them, and the worst thing is that they are taught to hate their native ukraine. to the workshop and the president's authorized representative for children's rights and child rehabilitation. thank you for visiting. good evening . the statistics of kidnapped children are changing as quickly as the number of people killed in this war . to the question, tell us which statistics are relevant today and do we even know the directions where children are taken under what pretexts and what is happening to them there in

russia let's understand the numbers today we have two different ones and one number which the russian government communicates to open sources and this number is not supported by any lists of information, that is, where it comes from, no one understands these numbers, and in fact we are very cautious about the fact that it is true, because in our opinion it is too inflated. and today they communicate more than 721,000 evacuated children but everyone perfectly understands that this is in no way no evacuation is nothing but deportation and forced relocation, but of course the russians are interested in presenting it as a very noble act of saving ukrainian children well, from themselves it turns out that way, and on the other hand, there are ukrainian data on which we have to rely , which become the basis for searching for children, and today we have data on more than 13 and a half thousand children, according to which we have a

personal list. that is, we know the names surnames, patronymics, we know the birth, we know where these children are from. this list is supplemented as much as possible by all departments regarding the information that is in the e-e data bases in ukraine , so we search for this list, it is updated daily and increases, but unfortunately we understand that it is not 13 .5 thousand and not even 20,000 children abducted by russia. we are talking about hundreds of thousands, but we question the figure that is voiced by the russians. 15,000 is a specific list of people, children, whom we can record and we have specific information about each of them. that is, what was the statement for? the children of war portal has been created, and it is the only informational state platform on which you can not only view daily updates of the figures, but also submit an information application in one click, which will immediately be sent to the office of the prosecutor general, or

to the national police or to an application to the office of the boatswain of human affairs, e.e., or to the information bureau for a certain problem, there is a specific recipient. that is, you can report information about the pact that became known to you about the deportation and transfer of a child, about changing the child's citizenship, about adoption or transfer to guardianship, if you do you know where the child is, or if you are simply looking for a child who is lost, that is, it is these appeals that are renewed, updated, filled with new facts, uh, this is the list by which we are looking for children, of course we we invite everyone to report any information that has become known to them, we receive data not only from citizens, but also from local authorities, for example, from other institutions or from relatives, friends, it is not necessarily parents who became aware of such and such facts, but thanks to the platform, the children of war children were found, they

turned to you precisely for those children who were on the list and talked about their location, they helped. well, in fact, we have to understand that children who were forcibly displaced or children who were deported are already, accordingly, citizens there not in they really want to report even if they know, er, where this child is, to record the fact that this person went to the portal and looked there are no lists of children , respectively, to state that i know that exactly . this child is deported. she is there, then there is no way. that is, it is closed. lists, you can only inform about the whereabouts of a child who is wanted in ukraine, because there are profiles of children and photos. that is, it is a search in ukraine, and with russia you communicate with citizens with ordinary people. we do not talk with representatives of the authorities. well, for example they send you messages from russia that they brought us a certain number of children there, yes, such a contact, no, i personally do not have such a contact, maybe other colleagues

receive some one-off messages. but again, i want to draw your attention to the fact that if this happens, then this it is definitely not a massive case, when the russians are really massively helping, helping, supporting, returning ukrainian children, definitely not like that , definitely. stated that you are not picking up the phone, she is allegedly trying to return the ukrainian children, and you simply do not answer and now she can quote verbatim, we connected our security forces to determine how many families are ready to accept these children, allegedly they want and we do not want to accept how should we organize this program literally several days ago, we reunited a mother who is now in kyiv with a child who was on the territory of the dpr, who communicates with russia with representatives of the authorities, and this is a new attack in order to discredit the ukrainian side in order to

to show that we do not want to take our children away, this is absolutely discrediting, you all understand , there was no contact with me either. no one wrote to me and no one called me, no offers came either. i also did not write to the russian side because ukraine does not have any diplomatic e relations with russia, therefore no one will communicate directly because the situation with the return of ukrainian children is a very different situation, for example, the exchange of prisoners. because there cannot be an exchange here because the russian authorities do not admit that they deported these children to us, but they moved them, they still present it as an evacuation, so how can they negotiate with the ukrainian side, uh, about transferring the children back, if it was a real evacuation, it would be like that, but in reality there is no such thing therefore, all this is done exclusively for the internal information consumer in order to create in the information field

of russia and the waves of ukraine , the fascists give up their children there, and they abandoned 800,000 children there, we are trying to return them to them they are not needed, so we are forced to somehow legalize them here, if this word is appropriate, that the russian side has never agreed to a corridor for the removal of children from danger. that is , we remember that because of the fact that there was really an invasion, a full-scale invasion was so reactive and part of the territory of e- we immediately came under occupation very quickly, and we did not have time to allow the civilian population to leave there, and then we constantly negotiated a humanitarian corridor in order to withdraw , for example, an institution with a 24-hour stay children are very seriously ill children. but the russian side never once entered these corridors or simply shelled the same corridors and did not allow them to leave, that is, they created all the conditions so that we could not take them away, then they take these children away and

say that the ukrainian side is not here why don't they take the children away? they don't get in touch somehow, but in addition to evacuating the supposedly dangerous territory, the russians use such a tool as improving the health of children, but since the latest on december 15, the occupiers they took out 40 children from lysychansk and north donets took them to the stavropol region for forced rehabilitation and uh, a case that struck me personally from volnovakha and the russians filmed it, they took the children to the christmas tree in yemalo, nenets district, let's listen to a fragment of how they explain it themselves today in the morning, we are sending a group of our children according to the application of the governor of the i little german autonomous district, andrey chertyukova, to the governor's christmas tree, friends. the i little german district is 4,000 km from volnovakha and the zone permafrost and -25 - temperature, and

it seems to me that the main question is whether in the heads of these parents who are standing next to the minibus, who see that their children are being taken away 4,000 km from their native home, and they also know the facts that their children were taken to the crimea in the summer rehabilitation to some camps there, they were almost not returned as uh well, what is happening to the parents, we have to understand that this is a new technology, uh, the kidnapping of ukrainian children . that is, it is practically no different from forced deportation or forced relocation. why because you know what signs of genocide are not only murder , wounding, and the transfer of children from one ethnic group to another ethnic group, but also the creation of conditions that are absolutely unfit for life, respectively, in these

territories, exactly such conditions are created when people simply go crazy from the lack of food from the cold and from the impossibility of providing and receiving medical assistance and so on , that is why it is said that parents do this deliberately and simply give their children away because they want the best for the child, well, this rarely happens. that is, we are talking about the fact that they they allegedly agree to give the child away because, i 'm sorry, there is nothing to feed her. but it is simply impossible to take her to the ukrainian side, it's simply impossible. this is the second time. we also have to understand that the parents are forced by telling them that we will take her on vacation for two months and return it to you. yes, if you don't give the child back, we see it as it is, and if you are a bad father or mother, we will take the child away from you forever. everything will be hers. a new family will be provided, and so on. that is, we are simply talking about a new

technology. we are not talking about the fact that these are parents there, everyone does it consciously, i give the child away because they believe that it is for the best. well, all the more so you understand here that if we are talking about such a trip, it is in no way, what kind of christmas tree it can be, very important because we did not understand , it seems, parents voluntarily give up a child for rehabilitation it turns out that they are politicians through elections, this is explained by the fact that explosions are dangerous here, and we will give the children a holiday. they will go where it is safe, like where the christmas tree is, but still, i cannot personally understand the parents, but what worries me the most is one more moment, one thing when the parents themselves agree they see off the suitcases themselves, they give the children and there are children , children who are children, children who are deprived of parental parental care, who simply cannot make a choice for themselves, whether they want to go or not. that is how it was in kherson. i recently returned from there and spoke with the director of the social rehabilitation center volodymyr sagayduk. things about the fact that 50 children

from one month to four years old were stolen from one child's home. these are children, we know that in russia they have simplified the adoption of the legislative norm and there is also a secret adoption and criminal responsibility, well , that is, where these children are now is simply unknown, one more thing that mr. volodymyr told me about the fact that the russians brought weapons to his social rehabilitation center, 15 children from the mykolaiv region from one of the social rehabilitation centers, and what condition these children were in mr. volodymyr told me personally, and let's listen to what happened on july 15 from the front line
