For nearly four months now, there have been no prisoner swaps between Ukraine and Russia, the last one taking place on August 7 during which 22 Ukrainian soldiers were returned home, according to Kyiv Post.
But since then, thousands of Ukrainian prisoners of war have been languishing in Russian captivity, while rising rates of desertions mean the number of Russian prisoners of war in Ukrainian captivity continues to increase.
Ukraine says the stalling of prisoner swaps is due to obstruction on the part of Russia and Russian prisoners of war interviewed by Kyiv Post said they have been abandoned by the Kremlin.
So why is Russia not doing anything to get its own men back?
As Russia’s 21-month war in Ukraine drags on, reports are appearing that the numbers of its mobilized soldiers seeking to desert are surging.
Earlier the Moscow Times quoted the Georgian-based group Idite Lesom that aids troops attempting to leave Putin’s army, saying it had experienced an 89 percent increase in requests for assistance over the past few months.
Grigory Sverdlin, founder and leader of the group said that between June and August it had received 305 requests for help but between September and November this number had almost doubled.
