A Ukrainian official accused yesterday Wednesday International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) that it is not cooperating with its country to determine the fate of Ukrainian refugees in Russiafor “Synergy” in “displacement”, thing that he denied categorically the ΔΕΕΣ.

“I suspect he is an accomplice,” Russia said after meeting with an official of the Ukrainian Red Cross.
“It has been a month since I tried to see the president of the ICC to discuss with him the deportation of our citizens to Russia. “I will try to do so after the ICRC president says he will open a delegation in Rostov-on-Don (a city in southern Russia near the border with Ukraine) and encourage the reception of Ukrainians in the territory of the aggressor state.” Mrs. Denisova.
“I met with him today representative of the Ukrainian arm of the Red Cross in which I wrote 120 letters on the subject of the search of our citizens. “I did not receive any response,” he added.
He referred to UN numbers, according to which they are 550,000 Ukrainian refugees in Russia, among them 121,000 children.
“Where are they; In camps? In temporary outbreaks? “There are testimonies of people who led them,” he said.
Mrs. Denisova also stressed that she asked Russian counterpart Tatiana Maskalkova to send it lists of the names of Ukrainian refugees in Russia, in order for Kyiv to cooperate with the ICRC for their repatriation: “No response on its part and on the part of the ICRC”.
Asked about the statements of the Ukrainian official by the French Agency, the ICRC “Categorically rejected these false accusations”reiterated that it does not “make forced evictions” and reminded that “it facilitated the voluntary passage of civilians and wounded, with all security” to various Ukrainian cities.
He confirmed that he was “considering opening an office in Rostov-on-Don” to “alleviate the suffering of people affected by the armed conflict”.
“Dialogue with all parties in a war is essential, in order to have access to all the people affected and in order to ensure the necessary security guarantees for our teams that provide vital assistance,” the ICC stressed.
The organization assured that yesterday it had “Positive and constructive” meeting with the Ukrainian official and that he gave Ms. Denisova “answers to the authorities’ concerns on these issues bilaterally and confidentially.”
