The Commissioner for Children's Rights under the President of the Russian Federation Maria Lvova-Belova reported on the behavior of her 15-year-old son from Donbas, whose adoption she spoke about earlier. During the press conference, the ombudsman said that the new member of her family still has memories of her former life.
“It is difficult to react when a child runs to younger children and says: “Borrow a Muscovite,” said Lvova-Belova .
She added that “it is not related to him, but to eight years of propaganda” on the territory of Ukraine.
“But now we love each other,” assured the public defender of rights.
Lvova-Belova announced the adoption of a teenager in the summer of 2022 – during the filming of a TV report on the Day of Family, Love and Loyalty. She said that the boy was from Donbass, “from the cellars of Mariupol”.
At the end of March, the International criminal court in The Hague, whose jurisdiction Moscow does not recognize, the issuance of an arrest warrant against Lvova-Belova as well as Russian President Vladimir Putin for “illegal deportation of people from Russian-occupied parts of Ukraine.” Commenting on the issuance of the ICC arrest warrant, Lvova-Belova said that she did not understand the nature of the charges and did not know “about what” the thousands of “Ukrainian children in question”, as the ICC did not provide any data on its charges. The Russian Foreign Ministry subsequently reminded that ICC decisions have no legal force for Russia, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov described the situation itself as outrageous.
