In another major humanitarian achievement, the UAE has facilitated the exchange of 350 captives between Russia and Ukraine. This is another milestone in the UAE’s continued diplomatic interventions to lower tensions and enable humanitarian response in the ongoing conflict.
The latest agreement, officials say, brings the number of captives exchanged via UAE-brokered talks to a staggering 3,233. Russian and Ukrainian representatives have both thanked the UAE for its impartial role in facilitating the safe return of prisoners to their countries.
UAE’s Foreign Affairs Ministry restated its desire for encouraging dialogue and reducing the cost of war on human life. The new swap is just another in a succession of backstage diplomacy efforts in reaction to humanitarian disasters resulting from war.
World leaders have welcomed the UAE’s role as a mediator, praising the nation’s efforts as a key move in de-escalating tensions and showing the strength of diplomacy in one of the most unstable parts of the globe.
