President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that the return of Ukrainian children abducted by Russia and the exchange of all prisoners of war are set out in the 20-point peace plan.

Details: Zelenskyy said this in response to a question about hearings in the US Senate, where senators have emphasised that any agreements with Russia that do not contain guarantees for the return of Ukrainian children would be unacceptable.

Quote: "Indeed, the senators and members of Congress are working on this, and I am in constant contact with them. I have in-person meetings and phone calls on this issue. They support it. By the way, the US First Lady also supports this matter.

These issues are sensitive and painful for Americans, just as they are for us. These are our children, so for us it is even closer, undoubtedly. But it is important to Americans too.

And that's why the issues of the return of children, as well as the exchange of all our prisoners, are included in the 20-point plan. The US congressmen and senators are moving forward with the relevant legislation regarding our children. They are making progress in Congress, and we will support them."

Background: On 2 December, Zelenskyy said that the updated version of the peace plan that Ukraine is currently discussing with the US contains 20 points, rather than the 28 in the original draft.
