Près de 30 pour cent de tous les enfants en situation de handicap en Russie vivent dans des orphelinats de l'État où ils sont parfois en proie à la violence et la négligence, a déclaré Human Rights Watch dans un rapport publié aujourd'hui. La Russie devrait mettre fin au mauvais traitement des enfants en situation de handicap dans les services de l'État et faire une priorité du soutien fourni pour que les enfants handicapés vivent avec leurs familles ou dans d'autres environnements familiaux, plutôt que dans des institutions.
