A proposal that might work?
A new proposal shakes up the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, after the invasion of Vladimir Putin’s army which has been going on for two months now. Zelensky offers Viktor Medvedchuk in exchange for Ukrainian prisoners, “Boys and girls” captured by Moscow troops. Will the Kremlin government accept the trade?
Remember how Russia boasted that it conquered Kiev in 48 hours? Instead, Ukraine pushed the enemy back for 48 days.
This is the beginning of the new speech of Volodymyr Zelensky to the nation, which speaks to its population every day to try to raise the morale of a land tormented by a war that, in Moscow’s intentions, was to last a few days, but has been going on for two months now.
Speaking of “hosts of occupants that our defenders send to hell“, The Ukrainian president adds that
The Russian army has reached a level of irreparable losses higher than that of the Soviet Union in 10 years of war in Afghanistan. Higher than that of Russia in the two wars in Chechnya. The Russian dead will soon be 20 thousand. And then how many? 30 thousand? 40 thousand?
Zelensky offers Viktor Medvedchuk in exchange for Ukrainian prisoners
Then the president offers an exchange: the Ukrainians have arrested Viktor Medvedchuk, a man close to Putin who should have been head of the fancoccio government in Kiev.
He had been in hiding for 48 days. And in the end she decided to try to escape from our country. I think it was particularly cynical of her to use military camouflage. He tried to disguise himself as a ‘soldier’, a ‘patriot’. Well, if Medvedchuk has chosen a military uniform for himself, he will have to respect the laws of war.
The president added:
I offer the Russian Federation to exchange this boy of hers with our boys and girls who are now in Russian captivity.
Will the Kremlin ever accept this exchange to free a key man in Vladimir Putin’s expansionist plan?
