The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is the main mediator in the return of Ukrainians from Russian captivity.
This was stated by the Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights Dmytro Lubinets, RBC-Ukraine reports citing a telethon broadcast.
He noted that the UAE is currently the main partner in the return of Ukrainian prisoners.
“We are very grateful to them. Our last returns were mediated by the diplomats of this country,” the ombudsman said.
In addition, Ukraine is discussing with UAE diplomats the sending of a humanitarian convoy so that every Ukrainian prisoner of war can receive clothes, personal hygiene products and medicines. However, the parties have not yet “agreed” with Russia.
Lubinets added that there are other countries that help Ukraine return its military, but the UAE is currently the most effective.
