The United States Announced the Launch of a Program to Return Ukrainian Children – Sybyha

The United States will allocate $27 million for programs for Ukrainian children and youth. This was announced by Foreign Minister Andriy Sibiga, as reported by Glavkom.

We are sincerely grateful to the United States for its unwavering strong support for the return, rehabilitation, and full reintegration of Ukrainian children and youth. Today’s announcement of a program worth $12 million for these goals, and also a future program worth $15 million for their identification and return, will help support our coordinated efforts and ensure full accountability, according to the statement.

As a reminder, U.S. First Lady Melania Trump said she is working to return Ukrainian children who were separated from their families during the war. She said she is trying to oppose President Vladimir Putin’s plans for these children.

Melania Trump called the reunification of children with their families one of the main directions of her work. “Reuniting as many children as possible is my main focus. What they are going through just breaks my heart. And there is nothing better than seeing a child reunite with their parents,” she said.

It is worth recalling that U.S. First Lady Melania Trump stated that the direct humanitarian channel between the United States, Ukraine, and Russia continues to operate. According to her, through it work continues on the reunification of children with families from whom they were deprived due to the war.
