Billionaire Ilon Musk, the Department of Government Efficiency of the White House (Doge), stopped financing the Humanitarian Research Laboratory of Yale University, which assisted with the search for Ukrainian children stolen by Russia.
About it reports The Telegraph with reference to a representative of Yale University.
“Researchers at the Humanitarian Research Laboratory (HRL) have recently been informed that the state financing of their work on the war in Ukraine has been stopped,” the university representative said.
According to him, HRL is investigating humanitarian crises around the world using open sources and analysis.
It is noted that the team of Yale University helped with the identification of stolen children, working together with Bring Kids Back UA, a campaign launched by President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky. In total, they were able to return about 1,240 children.
It is emphasized that the issue of abduction of Ukrainian children has been raised many times on the Capitol Hill, in particular the senior democrat Dick Durbin.
“The war shows the worst in people. And, under the bloody leadership of Vladimir Putin, Russia has committed some of the most horrifying atrocities of martial law that can only be imagined. But one of the most terrifying of these thiefs is the abduction of Russian children, ”he said.
The Human Rights Commissioner Dmitry Lubinets stated that during a full -scale invasion, the Russian Federation deported or forcibly moved 19 546 Ukrainian children. As of January 28, as of the Bring Kids Back UA initiative, 1037 illegally exported Ukrainian children managed to return.
On March 14, the adviser to the head of the Presidential Office Darius Zarivna stated that as part of the initiative of the President of Ukraine Bring Kids Back UA managed to save four more Ukrainian children who remained on temporarily captured territories and suffered pressure, intimidation and forced Russification.
President Volodymyr Zelensky has previously stated that the researchers of Yale University have identified hundreds of Ukrainian children from Donetsk and Luhansk regions, which has been abducted by Russia since February 2022.
Recall that US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that the state officially closes 83% of USAID programs.
Almost all USAID (USAID) staff will go on administrative leave around the world. Within 30 days, these employees will be returned to the United States.
The group of former USAID Agency leaders (USAID) opposed the attempts by Donald Trump’s administration to eliminate the Office. In the statement, they called on Congress to promptly protect the authorized role of the agency.
