MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Ukraine has repeatedly refused to take its ordinary soldiers from captivity, Kiev is interested in other military personnel – officers, members of the ultranationalist Azov battalion*, Russian Human Rights Commissioner Tatyana Moskalkova told Sputnik.
"This is not the first time that the Ukrainian side says that they are not interested in these Ukrainian servicepeople, but are interested in other servicepeople: these are officers, these are Azov members. Either them, or no one is needed — that is how the question is put," Moskalkova said.
Negotiations between Russian military and Ukraine on prisoner exchange are going very hard, the official said, adding that this is a manifestation of the art of diplomacy.
