Is Moscow Preparing to Deport 100k Ukrainians to Moscow?

Russian officials and occupation officers may be preparing mass deportations of Ukrainian citizens from occupied territory to the Russian Federation.

Bloomberg, the US media giant, reported that Mikhail Mishustin (Russian Prime Minister) issued a government order mid-December. “revenue mobilisation” that allocated up to €2.5 billion in extra spending for what Moscow calls ‘the potential resettlement’ Russian residents who moved from the Kherson Region to Russia

Ukraine’s Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereshchuk responded to the Russian government’s order, stating that Russian officials and occupation authorities may be planning to deport more than 100,000 residents from the Kherson region to Russia under fears that Moscow’s forces may lose further territory in war-torn Ukraine.

Vereshchuk also claimed that Russian officials had forcibly resettled an unknown number of Ukrainian citizens in Russia’s 57 regions, which includes Siberia and the Far East.

Wartime Deportation

The Institute of the Study of War continues to believe that the deportation of Ukrainian citizens into the Russian Federation is likely to be an ethnic cleansing campaign. It also appears to violate the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide.
