SRES 128 United States Senate · 118th Congress

A resolution condemning the Russian Federation's kidnapping of Ukrainian children.

This non-binding Senate resolution (SRES 128) condemns the Russian Federation for kidnapping Ukrainian children, citing evidence of at least 6,000 children removed from Ukraine since Russia's 2022 invasion, with many forced into Russian citizenship and adoption under relaxed laws. It specifically rebukes nations supporting Russia's actions and condemns forced adoptions violating international child protection standards. The resolution calls on Russia to cooperate with international organizations to return all children to Ukraine immediately. As a symbolic statement, it does not alter U.S. law or impose sanctions but formally expresses congressional opposition to these actions.
