“The increase in the number of prisoners of war is associated both with the situation at the front, the deterioration of the motivation of Russian soldiers, and with the blocking of the exchange of prisoners of war by the Russian side,” the message says.
The camp itself is located deep in the rear, as provided for by the Geneva Conventions.
It is indicated that, as in the case of the West-1 camp, the conditions will meet all the requirements of international humanitarian law. The Russian military will be provided with medical care, three meals a day, communication with relatives, as well as constant access to representatives of the Red Cross.
The draft noted that the detention of prisoners of war exclusively in specially designated places is provided for by the Geneva Conventions.
— Unlike the Russian Federation, Ukraine adheres to international humanitarian norms. While the Russian side, for example, holds the Ukrainian military in ordinary prisons and correctional colonies along with prisoners, sometimes in inhumane conditions, without respecting and actually not recognizing their status as prisoners of war, added the press service of I Want to Live.
Earlier, the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense, Kirill Budanov, said that there are now obstacles on the part of the Russian Federation in the issue of exchanging prisoners of war in an all-for-all format. However, Ukraine is ready to overcome this obstacle.
