In textbooks for children from the occupied territories of Ukraine and russians, the occupying country decided to change the name of Kievan Rus

Information is spreading on social networks that from now on the name "Kievan Rus" has been replaced by "Rus" in history textbooks.

This will deprive children of access to objective historical facts and will destroy the historical memory, national identity and identity of young Ukrainians.

Such actions of the occupier violate Article 29 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, which stipulates that the child's education should be aimed at educating the cultural identity, language and national values   of the country where he lives, his country of origin and civilizations other than his own.

I appeal to the UN Commission for Investigation Human Rights Violations during the russian Military Invasion of Ukraine to take into account these facts of russia's violations of children's rights in Ukraine.
