Ukraine's Human Rights Commissioner Dmytro Lubinets held a conversation with Russian Human Rights Commissioner Tatyana Moskalkova regarding prisoner of war exchange negotiations.

Over the past two weeks, up to 2000 Russian military personnel were captured by Ukrainian Defence Forces, including from sensitive categories: conscripts, FSB border guards, and Akhmat formations.

For the first time, Russia initiated negotiations on POW exchange.

Ukraine will prioritize return of seriously ill/injured, women, longest-held prisoners including Azov Regiment and Azovstal Defenders.

Lubinets does not believe an 'all for all' prisoner exchange will happen in the near future despite the Kursk operation and additions to the exchange pool

Ukraine continuously proposes large exchanges, including through intermediaries proposing 'all for all' exchanges

A quick all-for-all exchange is unlikely to happen anytime soon.

The Ukrainian side constantly takes the initiative of conducting large exchanges, including through intermediaries.
