  1. Actualy the warrant should also be issued for any russian adoption agency involved in the kidnapping

  2. What an appropriate response to such a clear and powerful condemnation – a long string of whiny bots

  3. Oleksandra Matviichuk, this is an incredible woman. It literally HURTS to hear what goes on in Ukraine and the suffering and the ways of suffering for all those in Ukraine. I DO know that Ukraine fights for THE REST OF THE WORLD AND OUR DEMOCRACIES. The people who do not understand this need to WAKE UP.
    I find it impossible to have any comfort knowing what I do, and the horror knowing Russia has been absconding children away, and taking them to Russia. As a mother, I cannot bear it, nothing in my 66 years have prepared me as to how to manage with this knowledge, it makes me feel very ill.
    I do pray, I do support UKRAINE, this must stop. God bless you Ms. Oleksandra Matviichuk, you have such important work I realize you cannot look away from, I wish we could know how to help MORE in meaningful ways. I will search more ways to help.
    My prayers are that Putin suffers and dies, and that all who are continuing this horror war with Ukraine will wither and die the most horrible death… and that soon it will be OVER and we will help Ukraine repair and recover…

  4. She’s one of many unsang heroes of Ukraine who’s work are so powerful and dangerous but can bring those powerful and well connected criminals to justice. Great job Madame, my utmost respect to you and your job. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦

  5. Thank you, Oleksandra, for your courage and your commitment to human rights. The civilized world is with Ukraine , the brave Ukrainian people, and we are horrified by Russian barbarism. I studied international law with Telford Taylor (the former chief US prosecutor at the Nuremburg Tribunal) He would be so proud of the important work you are doing.

    1. @Sormina Saragih I love watching her. She is a very seasoned reporter and journalist. Well informed and up to date.

  6. The plight of the Ukrainians often makes me cry. I hope that the war will end this year and that there will be some justice. I don’t think I will ever be able to forget these crimes and Putin’s brutality. I know how sheltered I am to be spared this war. I am also more critical of other countries, especially the US, in their actions in previous wars. I hope that the US will sign onto the International Criminal Court, to show that they too should be held accountable for future wars.
