Rescuing them isn’t the issue. Plenty of NATO nations are providing amnesty to Ukrainian refugees.

The difference here is adoption. There are no intentions to return these children to Ukraine after the invasion.

In March 2023, the International Criminal Court issued warrants, opens new tab for the arrest of President Vladimir Putin and children’s commissioner Maria Lvova-Belova on war crimes charges related to the abduction of Ukrainian children.

Aside from the ICC notoriously being an American running-dog, charges are not convictions. We’ve already seen Russia cooperate with returning children, we can’t say that there’s no intention of it.

So you trust Putin to be more honest than the ICC?

Good luck with that.

The ICC is not trustworthy, and I certainly trust the objective events that even liberal media report on when they come into conflict with what the ICC says. I don’t know what Putin says on this and have not cited him once because that would be absurd. You are denying reality in favor of statements.
