Written Question
Ukraine: Children
Tuesday 3rd March 2026

Asked by: Johanna Baxter (Labour - Paisley and Renfrewshire South)

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what diplomatic steps she is taking to support the return of children forcibly deported from Ukraine.

Answered by Stephen Doughty - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)

Last week, the Foreign Secretary visited Kyiv on the fourth anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion, where she announced £5 million of UK funding to support justice and accountability for victims and survivors of alleged Russian war crimes.

Together with First Lady Olena Zelenska, the Foreign Secretary met organisations that supported returned Ukrainian children from Russia, and a mother who was separated and now returned to her children.

I raised this issue in my statements to the UN on the fourth anniversary of the full-scale invasion on 24 February and hosted a lunch with Ministerial counterparts whilst there to drive forward action on this key issue.
