U.S. Deported Children Report Sparks Debate Over Putin's Role
Institute for the Study of War and Yale Humanitarian Research Lab reported 19,500 deported children moved to 210 locations for re-education and combat training.
Advocates and William Taylor warn Putin is using Melania cynically, while Nathaniel Raymond cites 35,000 kidnapped Ukrainian children.
U.S. officials praised reunions, but Trump equivocated on numbers between 20,000 and 300, with Hill skeptical.
Advocates fear Melania’s involvement may downplay Moscow’s culpability, though a White House aide says she doesn’t believe Putin.
