Denys Monastyrsky told how he managed to exchange commanders from Azovstal
The commanders from Azovstal, who were exchanged on September 21, did not know where they were being taken.
The exchange procedure was very long and secret, as there were constant clarifications on this matter.
This was announced on September 22 at a press conference by Interior Minister Denys Monastyrsky.
“The guys were exhausted. We participated in the exchange in Ankara. It dragged on until 12:00. The procedure itself was very long. There were constant clarifications. The guys didn’t know where they were going. They didn’t understand where they were. I’m talking about commanders from Azov, the National Guard, and the Marine Corps – Denis Prokopenko, Svyatoslav Palamar, Denis Schlege and others,” Monastyrsky said.
The minister added that the Ukrainian prisoners of war were in different prisons – on the territory of the Russian Federation and in the infamous Yelenovka.
“They were in solitary confinement on the territory of the Russian Federation. Some were in Yelenovka. The guys didn’t know where they were going, to the stage or certain trials with which they were threatened. When we met them, they asked who else was exchanged,” Monstyrsky said.
Monastyrsky also noted the efforts of foreigners who will help Ukraine to carry out the exchange.

WELL, HERE ARE MY MEANDERING THOUGHTS ON TODAY’S SITUATIONS IN THE “special war,” THAT CONTINUES TO GO IN FAVOR OF UKRAINE!!! FIRST, YESTERDAY I SAW A VIDEO OF SUPPOSEDLY “CHINESE TRUCKS” CROSSING THE ruSSian BORDER! IT WAS QUICK, BUT I SAW 7 TRANSPORT TRUCKS & ONE FUEL TANKER (IT LOOKED LIKE THE FUEL TANKER HAD SOME CHINESE LETTERS ON ONE SIDE)! “BRING ‘EM ON”!!! AT THIS STAGE IN THE WAR, TAKING OUT A orc TRUCK IS JUST AS GOOD AS TAKING OUT A JUNK T-62 TANK!!! INTERESTING, I WONDER WHAT KIND OF CARGO WAS INSIDE EACH OF THOSE CHINESE TRUCKS?!? SECOND, WITH WINTER JUST AROUND THE CORNER, I’M SURE THAT UKRAINE IS ALREADY GETTING WINTER EQUIPMENT, & CLOTHING, INTO THE LOGISTICS PIPELINE FOR ALL OF THEIR TROOPS (STAY ON THE GOODFOOT WITH LOGISTICS)!!! OH YEAH, ALSO, USE YOUR FRONT LINE AUDIO PROPAGANDA MESSAGES TO remind THE F*CKIN’ soviet era equiped orcs, “THAT they WILL BE FREEZING WHAT’S LEFT OF their beaten asses off EVERY NIGHT IN JUST THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS”!!! THE TEMP’S ARE GONNA START TO DROP EVERY NIGHT!!! THE orcs morale IS ALREADY DOWN THE TOLIET!!! JUST LET them KNOW, “IT’S BETTER TO GO AHEAD & SURRENDER, THAN TO DIE OF HYPOTHERMIA AT NIGHT HIDING IN A FRONTLINE TRENCH”!!! NO FOOD, NO WATER, NO AMMO, & NOW, “NO WARM CLOTHING” FOR THE UPCOMING COLD WINTERY WEATHER IN ALL OF EASTERN UKRAINE!!! THIRD, THIS NEW DISRUPTION OF ruSSian SOCIETY CAUSED BY putleR’s MOBILIZATION OF “ruSSian reservists” (HOW MANY WILL REALLY SHOW UP IS ANYBODY’S GUESS), GIVES GOLDEN OPPORTUNITIES FOR UKRAINIAN SF/INTEL TEAMS TO CAUSE MORE “BIG PROBLEMS” IN ruSSia!!!!! THIS WILL ALLOW BETTER COVERT TACTICAL MOVEMENT OPPORTUNITIES TO DISRUPT orc PERSONNEL, & LOGISTICS, TRYING TO ENTER UKRAINE!!! HOPEFULLY, IT WILL ALLOW MORE INFORMATION TO BE COLLECTED ON UKRAINIAN CIVILIAN MEN, WOMEN, & CHILDREN’S LOCATIONS INSIDE putleR’s ruSSia!!! ALSO, TRADING THAT, “ASSHOLE TRAITOR MEDVEDCHUK,” FOR UKRAINIAN POWs WAS A GREAT IDEA!!! NOW, WITH ALL OF THE CURRENT ANTI-WAR UPROAR GOING ON IN ruSSia, YOUR COVERT “JUSTICE FOR ALL TEAMS” CAN INFILTRATE ruSSian CITIES & START TO CARRY OUT “DESERVED ACTS OF RETRIBUTION,” AND “TAKE CARE OF, MEDVEDCHUK, & ALL OTHER UKRAINIAN TRAITORS, & COLLABORATORS, WHO THINK THAT they ARE NOW untouchable in, putleR’s Paradise”!!!!! “kill them all, & let the devil sort ’em all out later in HELL”!!!!!!! WELL I HOPE THE EASTERN OFFENSIVE KEEPS ON MOVING EAST, & SOUTH!!! “THE BEST DEFENSE IN THIS CURRENT SITUATION, IS OFFENSE”!!!!! EVEN IF IT MOVES FORWARD AT A SLOWER PACE!!!!!!! JUST KEEP UP THE OFFENSIVE PRESSURE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE IN THE DONBAS, & JUST KEEP THE orcs WEST OF THE DNEIPER TRAPPED WHILE YOU DESTROY them ALL WITH DAY, & NIGHT, MISSLE & ARTILLERY BARRAGES!!!!!!! YOUR GONNA WIN, JUST LET ALL OF THE NEW ANTI-WAR SENTIMENT IN ruSSia HELP TO TAKE DOWN putleR, & his oligarch KLEPTOCRATS, FROM WITHIN their own COUNTRY!!!!!!! GLORY TO ALL OF THE HEROES OF UKRAINE, MEN, WOMEN & CHILDREN!!!!!!! BLESS YOU ALL, VICTORY WILL BE YOURS THIS YEAR!!!!!!! VICTORY IS NEAR!!!!!!!
