  • Gazprom and Rosneft are implicated in the transportation and indoctrination of 2,158 Ukrainian children.
  • The U.S. General License 134A permits financial transactions that benefit these companies despite their war crime allegations.
  • The camps included military training as part of a broader Russification agenda targeting Ukrainian minors.

The Yale Humanitarian Research Lab has reported that Russian energy companies Gazprom and Rosneft facilitated the unlawful transportation and indoctrination of approximately 2,158 Ukrainian children from occupied territories between 2022 and 2025. The report highlights that these companies, closely tied to the Kremlin, are implicated in a systemic campaign of forced deportations and re-education, with children sent to camps in Russia and Crimea without parental consent. The camps reportedly included military training and patriotic education initiatives. Concurrently, U.S. General License 134A allows these companies to benefit financially from sanctioned oil sales, raising concerns about the implications for sanctions against entities involved in alleged war crimes. The situation underscores the intersection of corporate actions and state-sponsored aggression in the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
