Stealing Ukraine's Children: Inside Russia’s Camps

[@VICENews]

WATCH NEXT: We hear from the correspondents that’ve covered generation-defining stories in every corner of the globe, from a presidential assassination in Haiti, to the fight for housing rights right here in the U.S. - kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6PJiqSLa5yensU

Is there any brain inside here and on the Vice News channel (a NATO-affiliated media channel) to explain why Vice News and many other Western media channels did not cover the 2014 Odessa Trade Union Building massacre? Or why there were no reports about the suppression of the Russian language and Russians from 2014 to 2022? Can Vice News analyze why Ukraine eradicated the Russian language and Soviet-era historical monuments? Oh, why did the Ukraine Maidan overthrow the Yanukovich government? Why does no media channel talk about it? Did Hunter Biden use drugs in the White House? Vice News should do a report on this issue. And what about the case of the black teenager shot dead by the police in France? What is the reason behind this incident? Is it racial discrimination or not? There are many, many other issues that I and many others want to know about. As for Russia? I already know it's a bad country - let's not talk about Russia anymore. Let's talk about the excellence of the US, NATO, and the West. The wars in Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, and so on, there are too many stories. Есть ли здесь хоть какой-то мозг и на канале Vice News (связанный с НАТО) чтобы объяснить, почему Vice News и многие другие западные каналы не освещали массакр в Одессе в 2014 году? Или почему не было репортажей о преследованиях русского языка и русских с 2014 по 2022 год? Может ли Vice News проанализировать причины, по которым Украина уничтожала русский язык и исторические памятники советского периода? О, почему Майдан в Украине сверг правительство Януковича? Почему никто не говорит об этом? Использовал ли Хантер Байден наркотики в Белом доме? Vice News должен сделать репортаж по этому вопросу. А что насчет случая с черным подростком, застреленным полицией во Франции? Какова причина этого инцидента? Это расовая дискриминация или нет? Есть еще много-много других вопросов, о которых я и многие другие хотят знать. А что касается России? Я уже знаю, что это плохая страна - давайте больше не говорить о России. Давайте говорить об отличии США, НАТО и Запада. Войны в Ливии, Ираке, Афганистане и т.д., историй слишком много.

​@@AndJoa The "source" of child trafficking is every country in the world. The fact is we know now, by the number Russia themselves gave, that at least 700,000 Ukrainian children have been taken from Ukrainian cities after Russia bombs them. That is not saving the children, that is trafficking. 99.9% of these kids are not being reunited with their parents, only a handful to use as propaganda for the Russian government to claim they are doing this out of goodwill when it is a blatant lie. It is an obvious lie and somehow people still believe it. When a country attacks another country and takes their children, that is literally taking prisoners of war, as well as human trafficking.

There's a correspondent who used to work for Vice. He did a segment on Ukraine's Bandera Youth Nazi Camps like 7 years ago. He has his own show now "Popular Front". The Grey Zone already covered these camps, they have permission from the parents, some of them go to music schools, it just depends. They were originally meant to remove children from Donbas which was under heavy artillery attack since Oct 2021. My question is why is the Vice reporter so happy while asking Oxana how afraid she is? The Donestk and Lugansk People's Republics overwhelmingly voted in favor of incorporation into the Russian Federation. But that doesn't make sense to Americans. The whole "War crime" premise is based on the claim that it's not legal. International Law is simply dictated by the US. Its a self referencing circle...The children's counselor is a "dangerous man" because he is under international sanctions. Why is he under international sanctions? Because he's a bad Russian man.

I feel Russia is doing better than NATO and Americans did before, of course war separate kids from their parents and also kill parents too, if NATO wanted peace they would have not closed the line or disobey agreements that were made during end of cold war, Russia has never disobey them but NATO keep breaking them...objectively with no bias we know NATO want war to dominate the world , and to sell weapons. Today all recent US invasion and NATO invasions since 2000s were based on lies but we still condemn a country that is defending themselves. What about Russian kids who have been killed due to this war?

Unfortunately, Ukraine's only option is to kick the Russian invaders out of all of their country. If Ukraine went to take the war all the way to Moscow, the Russian population might feel attacked and begin mobilizing adding recruitment powers to grind down Ukrainian troops in an attraction warfare. And unless Russia does a catastrophic attack on NATO nations, there's nothing NATO can do.

"The United Nations first defined genocide in 1948 in the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. The treaty outlines five acts that can constitute genocide if they are done “with the intent to destroy an ethnic, national, racial or religious group”: 1. Killing members of the group 2. Causing serious bodily or mental harm 3. Deliberately inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about the group’s physical destruction in whole or in part 4. Imposing measures intended to prevent births 💢5. Forcibly transferring children"

What Russia is doing what Canada did not that long ago in our dark past which still is revealing itself to use. Residential schools, because you don’t know what a residential school is essentially it’s a place really would put indigenous children ages between I think 5 to 17 Andy were pretty much “culture washed” meaning they were assimilated into the more “civilized” aka the European culture brought over by the European. These schools were run by the Catholic Church and it took them a very very very long time to apologize. Unfortunately the damage is really done many indigenous kids here in Canada can’t even speak their native language they don’t know their culture and it’s just really sad honestly. And what Russia is doing right now to those Ukrainian kids is hopefully not going to be the same thing the Europeans did in Canada. But unfortunately Russia has a long history of Russification in Ukraine and other parts of the world that used to be part of the Russian empire or the Soviet Union. Like look at the former Soviet countries for example and see how many people speak Russian. Majority of the refugees here in Canada can speak Russian which is a good thing but unfortunately at the same time.

Ukraine is mostly populated by ethnic Russians that's why it is predominantely Russian speaking country. Same goes for Belarus.
