“The video released by the enemy was shot today in Russia, not in place and not in the exchange area. The video is frankly propaganda in nature and is part of a prepared misinformation campaign and IPSO of Russian special services with the aim of discrediting Ukraine and pressure on the negotiation group during the preparation of future exchange and repatriation events,” he said.
According to Yusov, the timing of the beginning of repatriation measures was agreed on June 3 with authorized representatives of the Ministry of Defense of the State aggressor state of Russia and should begin according to the plan next week.
“Everything that is happening today is the next performances of enemy special services. Despite such open provocations, preparation for the exchange continues, in the near future we are waiting for the result,” he said.
