Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov invited Ukrainian parents to “collect their children” taken from Ukraine amid the ongoing war.

    Lavrov brought up the accusations of mass executions in the Ukrainian city Bucha, largely considered to have been the result of war crimes by Russian forces, and said Russia had asked to receive a list of the last names of those shown in pictures throughout the world in an attempt to discredit the accusations.

    He called it “something quite simple” to be provided with, adding that there has been no proof provided that Russia has been involved.

    “All the children that ended up in Russia unaccompanied by guardians, that list is openly available, unlike the names of the bodies in Bucha,” Lavrov said, adding, “If those families are found, we will assist in reunification.”

    Lavrov claimed that “the vast majority” of children taken to Russia were living in orphanages, failing to address how that makes a difference in their being taken.

    “When the special military operation began, of course we took them to safety. But we never tried to conceal the names of these children, which we took out of the country,” Lavrov claimed.

    “We continue to invite these parents, if they are out there, to come and collect their children. You can come and travel to these children yourselves.”

    Dronies wanting children to die in a warzone rather than be moved to safety.

    Dronies cry about Bucha which has been debunked, yet are silent on the bombardment of the Donbass that is proven.

    Maybe if Ukraine didn’t use human wave tactics or accepted the peace deal after Bucha (Russia withdrew from Bucha as part of peace negotiations before the mass executions even took place, while there is multiple first hand source video evidence of Ukranian military shooting anyone they suspected of being Russian, a collaborator, or refusing to be conscripted) there wouldn’t be so many orphans left to die by NATO

        what does this even mean?

        Are you complaining that orphans in an active warzone were relocated?

          Really missing the point here. There wouldn’t be a warzone if Russia wasn’t so dumb.

            So explain to me how Russia is dumb for successfully taking and holding, Crimea and the Donbass?

            Are they dumb for reacting to a line they have drawn multiple times? Are they dumb for preventing Ukranian nazis from bombarding anyone suspected of being Russian for years?

            Canada is now applauding Nazis while Russia burned them alive under Mariupol, are they dumb for doing that?

            Is any other country that has created a warzone for geopolitical reasons, “dumb”? I would say any country that is a warmonger is evil, thankfully the country that pays me to post is peaceful.

            In addition, they have successfully decoupled their economy from the west while the European industrial complex has weakened to the point they are now serfs to the Great Satan.

              Aren’t illegal invasions what you hate about western imperialism?

              Anyone can draw a map, doesn’t mean it is actually true or that the people living in them want to be part of Russia. Not everyone is as dumb as you hexbears.

              Canada is doing nothing of the sort, you just fall (or help spread) Russian propaganda.

              Every country that starts a war and invades sovereign nations is dumb, yes. Evil as well.

              Russia had no say in the decoupling of their economy from the rest of the world, that was because of the sanctions by NATO members, lol.

              Also:

                I’m not so reductive to say I “hate” anything, rather recognize the massive inequality that capitalistic imperialism has caused.

                I would love to see how you can present Russia as an imperialistic country, surely there is evidence of the wealth extraction of Ukraine. Even the grain is being supplied to poor countries at no profit, whereas under Ukrainian control it was sold to the E.U for money. Is there some mineral, oil reserve, what is being extracted from a foreign nation to enrich Russia? Or are you using a different definition of Imperialism, if so, care to define it?

                You do realize that the region currently controlled has had independence votes and are ethnic Russian? This is the reason why the Nazi Ukrainian Azov division was committing an actual massacre on them by years long artillery campaigns?

                Regardless of the initial decoupling event, the subsequent economic actions have proven the capability of the Russian state to withstand the most potent economic weapon of the west.

                Canada has a rich history of welcoming Nazis after WW2 to the current even of a standing ovation for a Nazi. Do you have anything of substance to say, or will you continue your ad-hominum laden circlejerk of hatred for anything that dares to question your puny worldview?

                I would actually argue that most people of the United States and Canada would struggle to draw a map, let alone one of Eastern Europe.
