The only thing we understand for sure is that there is a track with humanitarian issues and a track with prisoners of war. Our position here is clear and unequivocal - the exchange of all for all. But as for the children and civilian hostages, it is obvious that they must be returned without any conditions in accordance with the Geneva Convention and international law. I am confident that we can speed up this process. I think that in fact it is all about the fact that this summit sets a certain framework, a certain basis and principles that everyone has agreed to, and then the concrete, detailed elaboration of this framework into a specific action plan will begin

- Zarivna said, answering the question of how to return prisoners and civilians, including children.
