The USA is the only state that has not ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
Mainly because the Convention prohibits the death penalty for minors.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

Volodymyr Zelensky a affirmé que les Etats-Unis avaient donné jusqu’en juin à Kiev et Moscou pour conclure un accord pour mettre fin à la guerre. Il a ajouté que Washington avait invité « pour la première fois les deux équipes de négociateurs russes et ukrainiens, probablement à Miami, dans une semaine ».
