Turkey will turn to the UN because it cannot get from the Russian Federation to meet with Ukrainian prisoners
"I wrote a letter to the Russian Embassy in Ankara on July 5, 2024. In a letter I mentioned my visit to Ukraine, about visiting Russian prisoners of war in Ukraine. And I also told them that I wanted to visit Ukrainian prisoners of war in Russia," Malkoch said. He said that he has not received the answers yet.
In addition, the Turkish Ombudsman conducted an online meeting with the human rights authorized in the Russian Federation Tatiana Moskalkova, and also wrote her a letter with a similar request, but there was no result. Sheref Malkoch noted that he reported this problem of Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan and asked for support in resolving this issue. He also stressed that he was ready to wait for some time from the Russian Federation.
