ROC: Metropolitan Onufry does not abandon attempts to release prisoners of war in Donbass
Patriarch Kirill called on Russian President Vladimir Putin to continue his efforts to release prisoners of war in the Donbass, which have been repeatedly discussed with the leadership of the Russian Federation at his request and at the request of Metropolitan Onufry.
"Some requests were granted. The role of the Church in such conflicts has, in the first place, a humanitarian dimension because people suffer, become victims of this hard conflict, which really makes very many people suffer," stressed the Primate of the Russian Orthodox Church.
As noted, the Church is concerned that in the last 14 months there have been no opportunities provided for the exchange of about 400 prisoners of war that can be released.
