Members of the Tripartite Liaison Group on
the settlement of the Donbas conflict agreed to exchange 50 prisoners on both
sides of the conflict before January 20, according to OSCE Representative to
the Contact Group Martin Sajdik after the talks in Minsk.
Sajdik expressed hope there will not be an even, 25 on 25, swap, but there will be a smaller number of prisoners from the certain regions of Donetsk and Luhansk regions than from the Ukrainian side.
As UNIAN reported earlier, a meeting was held
in Minsk on Wednesday of a political subgroup of the Tripartite Liaison Group.
Ukraine was represented by the ex-president,
Leonid Kuchma, while Russia – by ex-Duma Speaker Boris Gryzlov, who was
appointed plenipotentiary representative of the Russian Federation in December
last year.
