The Son Of U.S. Health Secretary Kennedy Fought For Ukraine

Russia has issued a warrant for his arrest.

In Russia, Conor Kennedy, the son of U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., has been placed on an international wanted list on charges of participating in the war in Ukraine. The relevant documents were filed with the Moscow City Court, according to Independent.

In Russia, Conor Kennedy has been designated a “foreign mercenary.” If detained, he faces seven to ten years in prison.

It is noted that 32-year-old Conor Kennedy previously stated that he was “ready to die” in Ukraine after joining the International Legion of Ukraine in 2022. In October 2022, he publicly stated that he had fought on Ukraine’s side during the first months of the full-scale war.

“I was deeply moved by what was happening in Ukraine over the past year. I wanted to help. When I heard about the International Legion of Ukraine, I knew I would go there, and the next day I went to the embassy to sign up,” he wrote on social media at the time.

Kennedy also said that he had told one person in the U.S. and one person in Ukraine his real name so that his family and friends wouldn’t worry. According to him, he didn’t want to be treated any differently.

In addition, Kennedy said that the war in Ukraine “will determine the fate of democracy in this century.” He also urged people to join the International Legion of Ukraine, help at the border, or send medical supplies.

The Russian side claims that Kennedy allegedly “fought as part of the Ukrainian army in the Kharkiv region under the guise of a local resident.”
