Five Nepalis who were captured by the Ukrainian army are safe: Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Vivek Khatri of Bardia, Siddharth Dhakal of Kavre, Vikas Rai of Morang, Prateek Pun of Rolpa and Ishwar Lamichhane of Gorkha, who have illegally joined the Russian army, have been captured by the Ukrainian army during the war.

'The statement was made on Wednesday by keeping all Nepalese people in one place . All five Nepalis have promised to go to Russia after being released from Ukraine and cancel the military agreement and return to Nepal. During the statement, a Nepali played the role of an interpreter,'' the official representative of Ukraine informed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a letter. Ukraine has not even informed them when they will leave

For a long time, the government of Nepal had taken a diplomatic initiative for the release of its citizens who were under Ukrainian occupation through the Nepali Embassy in Germany. Ukraine responded to Nepal only a month ago.

After an hour-long meeting between the Nepalese ambassador to Germany, Ramkaji Khadka, and the Ukrainian ambassador, it was indicated that the initiative to release the Nepalese who are under Ukrainian occupation will move forward. Ukraine has finally come and agreed to Nepal's request and indicated that it will leave with the statement of Nepalis. In addition, Ukraine had made a video of captured Nepalis and made it public.
