“American and Ukrainian diplomats are working to ensure that the military captured by the military from the United States Aleksander Dryuke and Andy Hun, who are fighting on the side of Ukraine, were included in the list of persons entitled to release as a result of negotiations.” It is reported by The Washington Post with reference to a relative of one of the prisoners. According to the publication, their families are in contact with the US State Department.
The publication notes that negotiations are complicated by the fact that the Americans are in the so -called “DPR”, not recognized by the United States.
We recall that the two veterans of the US Armed Forces, captured in Ukraine, Alexander Dryuke and Andy Tai Hyun, are held by separatists in Donetsk. Earlier, spokesman for Russian President Dmitry Peskov said that the Russian authorities cannot guarantee that the American military will not be sentenced to death.
