According to the CPD, Russian propagandists in their media are distributing a fake “appeal” allegedly on behalf of Ukrainian prisoners of war, which refers to “the exclusion of individuals from the lists for the exchange” and the reluctance to return them.
“Note that this information is not true. Ukraine insists on the exchange on the principle of” all for all. “Russia is trying to discredit the process and avoid this format of the exchange of prisoners,” the CPD said in a statement.
This is the next step of Russian propaganda, which the aggressor directs to undermine confidence in official Ukrainian institutions and discredit exchange mechanisms.
