The children that Russia kidnapped story reminded me of the Cantonists, the Jewish boys forcibly drafted by the Tsars in the 1800s - https://www.thejc.com/lets-talk/all/kidnapping-ukraine's-children-echoes-darkest-days-of-the-tsars-7IkFlCTpFFq8h3GV0tKNoC

I'm Jewish and my dad's side is typical Ashkenazi Russian-Polish border. If that side didn't still have trauma because of those stolen children, maybe my first cousin would still be alive and not dead in 2016 from our shared congenital heart disease...
