After the execution of the Armed Forces fighters: Ukraine forbade prisoners of war to call home

The ban on calls does not violate the Geneva Convention. According to her, Russians can still write letters. Prisoners of military personnel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation were forbidden to call their relatives in Russia. Previously, they had the opportunity to call once a month. This was reported by the Commissioner of the Verkhovna Rada for Human Rights Dmitry Lubinets.

He stressed that the ban on making calls does not violate the norms of the Geneva Convention, which Ukraine adheres to the captives of the Russians. The Commissioner told about it on the national telephone. Lubinets noted that the rules for Russian prisoners of war changed after Russian invaders became more and more demonstrative and cynically killing the Armed Forces on the camera. Also, similar cases are recorded from reconnaissance drones.

Dmitry Lubinets, the Ukrainian Ombudsman for Human Rights, requires the reaction of the world to the military crimes of the Russians. "Once again, I see an ineffective reaction, ineffective execution of the mandate by international organizations, first of all, the International Committee of the Red Cross . . .

If such an" ostrich position "will continue, then the whole world will understand why such an organization is needed, which cannot perform its function: Protect Ukrainian prisoners of war, ”Lubinets said. According to him, Ukraine changes some things about captive Russians. For example, it is about the possibility of prisoners to call home. Currently, Russian prisoners of war are in four special camps that meet all the standards of the Geneva Convention.

"As of now, we have been informed that the Russians have the opportunity to write letters, but they have no right to make phone calls," Lubinets said. He noted that the transfer of letters from captive Russians is as follows: he passes letters to his Russian colleague Tatiana Moskalkova. But, in turn, reports letters from captives of the Armed Forces. So in Ukraine they can understand where our soldiers are. We will remind, Focus wrote about how Russia changes its soldiers.
