CNN reported that Russia has announced that it will soon send trains carrying the bodies of Ukrainian soldiers, which were about to leave for Ukrainian border, extending a spat with a kiev on a prisoner of war swaps, CNN said.
Russia’s Lieutenant General Alexander Zorin said on Sunday, “I can tell you that in just one hour, the repatriation trains carrying the bodies of military personnel will also start moving.”
However, the process has been killed by controversies, Russia has failed to confirm Ukraine to confirm the attainment of bodies that Russia claims that on Saturday, as CNN, as CNN, has moved to an exchange area near Novaya Guuta in Belarus.
Zorin said that during the peace talks in Istanbul, the transfer of “more than 6,000 bodies” was agreed earlier this week.
According to CNN, Ukraine has rejected the allegations firmly, with the head of Ukrainian Defense Intelligence with Curilo Budnov, saying that his country has strictly followed the agreements reached in Istanbul.
Budnov said that the introduction of “Report measures” was scheduled for next week, claiming that it was reported to the Russian side on Tuesday. “Everything is going on according to the plan,” he said.
A planned exchange of prisoners of war between Russia and Ukraine did not take place on Saturday. Russia claims that Ukraine postponed Swap at the last minute. However, citing “dirty information games” from Kremlin, Ukrainian officials refuse it.
Despite the three -year battle, such exchanges have been common in the entire struggle, and Swap was the only concrete result of talks in Istanbul this week.
Russia said Ukraine unexpectedly postponed war prisoners and bodies of bodies on Saturday, making hundreds of Ukrainian bodies awaited at an exchange point in refrigerated trucks, in which no one was to gather them.
Ukraine dismissed the account of Russia’s incidents, stating that the two sides had agreed to exchanged seriously injured and young soldiers on Saturday, but a date was yet to be set for the repatriation of the bodies of soldiers.
Earlier, Istanbul, Russia and Ukraine agreed to exchange more prisoners at the end of this week during a second round of direct peace talks. Vladimir Medinski, head of the Russian delegation for peace talks with Ukraine, said the exchange would be the largest since the onset of the three -year war this week. (AI)
