Thank you.
Distinguished audience, thank you for having me here.
I can add something as per the role of Canada in this process of the repatriation and rehabilitation of the Ukrainian children and of restoring justice. Canada is the head of the Group of Friends on Children and Armed Conflict at the United Nations. That's is probably enough to help us towards the United Nations General Assembly resolution on the repatriation of Ukrainian children, because we need to push the Russian Federation to comply with its international obligations.
Also, we need to recognize the political indoctrination and re-education of Ukrainian children as a serious violation of children's rights committed during armed conflict, because without this recognition, the Russian Federation will continue this policy.
Of course, we need to not only repatriate Ukrainian children but also rehabilitate them. That is why we need to support the initiative by the Trust Fund for Victims in the ICC and use their assistance mandate and implement this policy for rehabilitation and reintegration even before the verdict of the ICC.
Thank you.
