      Where they’ll be raised by French or German or English parents, etc. Still doesn’t address your core issue.

        No. Refugees are given temporary amnesty until the war is over. Then they will work with the Ukrainian government for reconnection with family or adoption.

        Russia is placing them in homes that will raise them as Russians, with no intention of returning these children to Ukraine.

          So you want them to stay in the orphanage system indefinitely, until the war ends.

          I’m sorry but the pressing, immediate issue is the humanitarian crisis. The orphanage system of any country can only handle so many and if there are families willing to take them in, then that’s better than the alternatives for them. Cultural concerns are secondary to humanitarian ones.

          Also we don’t really know what Russia’s plans are for war orphans after the war ends. The idea that they have no intention of returning them seems like speculation on your part.

          The thing that would change my mind on this is to see established precedent for how these issues have been handled in the past, during previous wars. Every war creates war orphans but not every war is classified as a genocide.
