Ukrainian Deputy Defence Minister Hanna Malyar has expressed hope that the 264 fighters taken out of the Azovstal steel plant in Mariupol will be exchanged for Russian prisoners of war, the Associated Press reported. She made the assumption in light of State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin's statement that Ukrainian soldiers were Nazi criminals who should be excluded from future exchanges and face justice.
The State Duma is expected to discuss a draft resolution today on preventing the exchange of Nazi criminals, TASS reported.
