    Cursory websearch suggests your info, however accurate it may have been in the first place, is stale by 3 years.

    Even that source doesn’t mention genocide. It does mention the Geneva convention, which sounds kind of similar but they are serious things so try to keep track of them. It’s shitty to toss around terms like this without any regard to the gravity of them.

    Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide | OHCHR:

    Article II

    In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

    (a) Killing members of the group;

    (b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;

    © Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;

    (d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;

    (e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

    Relocating people itself is not genocide.

        You mentioned 1.6m. Here is what the source I found which is extremely biased towards you, says about 1.6m:

        900,000 and 1.6 million Ukrainian citizens, including 260,000 children, from their homes to Russia – often to isolated regions in the Far East.

        So adults outnumber children 6 to 1. If this is a plan to take children, it seems to be very poorly executed.

        Looks to me that people are being moved as groups and children are part of any group. You’d prefer they be left alone to fend for themselves in a war zone?
