Ukraina ja Lõuna-Korea vahel paisub diplomaatiline skandaal. Lõuna-Korea kutsub viivitamatult tagasi oma suursaadiku Ukrainast, teatas Lõuna-Korea välisministeerium.
Välisministeeriumide vahel tekkis hiljuti vaidlus pärast seda, kui Ukraina president Volodõmõr Zelenski avalikustas teabe kahe Venemaa poolel sõdinud Põhja-Korea sõjavangi üleandmisest Soulile. Lõuna-Korea teatas, et oli palunud seda teavet mitte avalikustada, ning peab Ukraina välisministeeriumi saadetud vabandust ebapiisavaks.
🇰🇷🇺🇦 South Korea recalls its ambassador from Ukraine following a dispute over North Korean prisoners of war
The diplomatic row was sparked by Volodymyr Zelensky’s statement about the transfer of two North Korean soldiers to Seoul after they were captured by Ukrainian forces in Russia’s Kursk region.
South Korea claims the transfer was supposed to remain confidential to protect the prisoners and their families still living in North Korea. However, Kyiv denies that any confidentiality agreement existed.
South Korean Foreign Minister Cho Hyun said Ukraine had apologized, but Seoul considered the apology insufficient.
