The statement emphasizes that Russia does not formally recognize the fact of its captivity, which complicates any attempt to release. This is due to the fact that international humanitarian law prohibits the maintenance of civilians, and therefore, there is no official mechanism for the exchange of such people – they must be released out of exchange.
Literally: “Since Ukraine already has the experience of exchange of civilians in the interests of the state – the same Viktor Medvedchuk was exchanged for 215 captured Ukrainian defenders and defenders – we urge the President of Ukraine, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the Security Service of Ukraine, the Ministry of Culture and Strategic Communications of Ukraine, the Coordination of the Rusage on the Rusage, and Suspect of Molchanov’s collaboration. ”
