Closed Help to return Ukrainian children that have been forcibly taken by Russia

Closed on

This petition calls on the UK Government to:

Work with international partners to identify and repatriate these children to their families and homeland.

Provide increased resources to Ukrainian and international child protection agencies working to find and return abducted children.

Many Ukrainian children have been forcibly taken by Russian forces—torn from their families, stripped of their identity, and subjected to systemic efforts to erase their culture and heritage.

This is not new. Eastern European and Baltic nations know this pain all too well. History has shown us what happens when such crimes are ignored: they repeat.

We must act now. We must bring these children home.
