“I ask you, on my own behalf and on behalf of Aiden Eslin, to facilitate the exchange for Medvedchuk,” RIA Novosti quoted British mercenary Sean Pinner as saying.
The other day, Medvedchuk's wife Oksana Marchenko published a video message to the relatives of two captured British mercenaries with a call to ask the British Prime Minister to influence Kyiv and exchange them for her husband.
Marchenko also turned to Russian President Vladimir Putin with a request to help in the release of the deputy.
British mercenary Aiden Eslin, who had previously surrendered in Mariupol, told during interrogation why he was disappointed in the Kiev regime.
The military of Russia and the DPR also captured another British citizen, Sean Pinner, who had previously fought in eight hot spots.
