In a video address to the Asian Leaders’ Summit in Seoul, South Korea, on July 13, President Zelensky charged that since the invasion, Russian forces have “forcibly transferred some 2 million Ukrainians, including hundreds of thousands of children, and tens of thousands of Ukrainians are being held in select Russian camps.” He said that “those deported have been deprived of communication, had their identity papers taken away, are being intimidated, and are being taken to the Russian frontier, making it difficult for them to return to their homeland,” and made a strong appeal to the world for help for their own people.
