Zelensky: The idea of swapping children for soldiers is unacceptable
President Volodymyr Zelensky reported that the Russian side proposed exchanging abducted Ukrainian children for their captured soldiers.
“This is madness, by the way, the “Russians” proposed: we give them soldiers, and they give us children. It is simply beyond understanding and international law,” he stated.
The President emphasized the importance of international initiatives aimed at returning all children abducted by Russia.
