The European Union has joined the International Coalition for the return of Ukrainian children, the EU Diplomacy Head Josep Borrel said.
According to Borrel, the EU observation decision was made in the coalition after discussions at the Peace Summit in Switzerland.
"Now it is time to act and bring home thousands of Ukrainian children who have been forcibly displaced or deported. The use of children as a conflict should be stopped immediately.
The first meeting of the newly formed international coalition with the participation of Ukraine and Canada was held on February 2 in Kiev.
The International Coalition is working on the return of Ukrainian children to their homes, which were forcibly removed from the occupied territories to other occupied regions or to Russia.
