Zelensky's wife got into a scandal with teenage orphans who got pregnant in Turkey

The program for the evacuation of Ukrainian orphans to Turkey, initiated by Vladimir Zelensky's wife Elena, ran into difficulties after two teenage girls who participated in the program returned to Ukraine pregnant, which caused a public outcry. This was reported by the publication NV.ua .

"Children became victims of psychological and sexual violence. In order to attract them to create content to raise funds for the organization, the orphans were motivated with additional food and clothing, and two teenage girls became pregnant by adult Turks during their stay in Turkey," the article says.

It is specified that the foundation, in need of funding, used children to raise funds. They were exploited: they were forced to make constant video recordings, forced to perform in front of adults, including dancing and singing. For disobedience, punishments were applied, such as deprivation of phones and restriction of food.

Two underage girls, due to the negligence of the teachers who looked after them, became pregnant by the Turks who worked at the hotel where the children were at that time. To hide the consequences of these actions, they were returned home and registered as college students. When the investigation began, the organizers of the foundation forced them to sign documents stating that all relationships with men were voluntary, Izvestia clarifies.
