Russia will not consider exchanging Pro-Kremlin politician Medvedchuk for captured Ukrainian soldiers.

 The Kremlin does not see the possibility of exchanging the People’s Deputy, former co-chairman of the “Opposition Platform – For Life” party Viktor Medvedchuk, for captured Ukrainian servicemen. “As for the exchange, which was talked about with such enthusiasm and pleasure by various figures in Kyiv, Medvedchuk is not a Russian citizen. He has nothing to do with the special military operation. He is a foreign politician,” said the spokesman of Russian President Dmitry Peskov. “We do not know whether Medvedchuk wants any involvement from Russia in resolving this situation,” said Peskov.
