Deputy Head of the Moscow Oblast Duma

Vyacheslav Dukhin is the deputy head of the Moscow Oblast Duma. In that capacity, Vyacheslav Dukhin directly contributes to the illegal deportation and adoption of Ukrainian children. He facilitates the illegal adoption of Ukrainian children into families living in his region and has sought to arrange Russian citizenship for those illegally deported Ukrainian children. The activities pursued by Vyacheslav Dukhin are part of a broader strategy of the Russian Federation to illegally deport Ukrainian citizens. Since its war of aggression against Ukraine, Russia has transferred many Ukrainian civilians to Russian-occupied areas or to Russia itself while often preventing or impeding those civilians from having safe passage to non-occupied parts of Ukraine. Vyacheslav Dukhin is one of the key persons involved in the forcible deportation of Ukrainian children to Russia and their subsequent illegal adoption into Russian families. Vyacheslav Dukhin’s actions violate the rights of Ukrainian children and infringe Ukrainian law and administrative order. Thus, Vyacheslav Dukhin is responsible for implementing actions and policies which undermine and threaten the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine.
