Russia’s lead negotiator, Vladimir Medinsky, has said the exchange with Ukraine will take place between June 7 and 9
Russia and Ukraine will conduct their next mass prisoner exchange at the end of the week, Moscow’s lead negotiator in peace talks with Kiev, Vladimir Medinsky, announced on Wednesday.
The statement follows the second round of direct negotiations between Russia and Ukraine held on Monday in Istanbul. At the meeting, the two delegations agreed to swap at least 1,000 prisoners from each side, prioritizing those who are wounded, ill, or under the age of 25.
Reporting on the results of the negotiations to Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday, Medinsky stated that while the final number of prisoners for exchange has not yet been finalized, it is expected to be about 1,200 from each side.
”This would again become the largest prisoner exchange,” Medinsky noted, stating that Russia is ready to begin the swap on June 7, 8, and 9. “We are completely prepared for this,” he added.
Medinsky also reported that Russian and Ukrainian negotiators had agreed to establish a special line of communication on the expedited transfer of heavily wounded soldiers, who would be exchanged outside of general prisoner swaps.
