"It is not necessary to act on some generally accepted canons: like, let’s wait for the end of the war, is it needed to recruit more there... I don't understand why this is needed. I believe that there is an agreement to change everyone for everyone, today there is so much - let's exchange for so much. Do not measure: 10 for 10, 11 for 11," the President said.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, on March 24, Ukraine and Russia exchanged 10 Russian prisoners of war for 10 Ukrainian.
