People are in need of food or water in the bahamas off their homes and communities were destroyed by Hurricane Dorian already saying that the final death toll will be staggering. Thanks. Im head of the humphrey glad you could join us a long awaited exchange of prisoners between russia and ukraine has taken place these swap could be a step towards easing relations between the countries and increasing the chances of resulting the conflict in the east of ukraine while fighting there between troops and russian backed separatists has killed more than 13000 people since 2135 ukrainians including a filmmaker all expense open 24 sailors detained since last year in russia which transferred from moscow to kiev with 35. 00 russians heading. In the opposite direction. For more on this story were joined by our correspondent Nick Connolly in moscow and kiev post at a time matthew cote in the ukrainian capital welcome to you both maggie starting with you bring us up to date with the latest what is happening right now in kiev. Will the prisoner exchanges already happen here was a very emotional scene at you but hes full airport when the plane arrived the prisoner the former prisoners now exited the plane they embraced president has announced he met their relatives brace their relatives a lot of emotions a very happy scene there now likely being taken to it in the Medical Clinic for medical checks but on this and that the exchanges happened some of the people returned include as mention film director alleged some sort of a very popular political prisoner but also 24 ukrainian sailors were captured while crossing from the black sea into the old city in november. Journalist who was who is arrested while visiting family in moscow also called a night of ukrainian was 19 in 2017 when he was basically kidnapped and illegally extradited to moscow from belarus so its a very big emotional day for ukraine and nick how is this exchange of prisoners being perceived on the russian side. Well hello theres a bit of a sort of asymmetrical side to this because not many of the people heading the other way coming to moscow are as well known in russia as is the case for those now traveling or returns to kiev the only really household name here to deal with shinseki a journalist who worked and headed the kiev office of a Russian News Agency apart from that not many people known to the wider russian public and indeed most of them are actually ukrainian citizens who were in ukrainian jails for fighting or assisting the separatists i think this is less important for the russian domestic audience for russias image abroad and we saw president Putin Meeting in what i might call fronts in the last month and this is all part of steps to kind of show that russia is acting in good faith and willing to deescalate and try and find some kind of starts to a new resolution of the Peace Process were talking about household names then matthew of course film director of next and so it was among the prisoners exchanged what is his release mean today. Well its a very significant moment for ukraine because he is of course highly publicly known its a significant victory for president selenski but at the same time as a figure who is so dominant in narratives of Political Prisoners that sometimes it can actually suck the oxygen out of the room for other Political Prisoners there is still after this possibly up to somewhere around 200. 00 ukrainian Political Prisoners of different types held in russia and has since sold himself said to journalists after he arrived you know the fight is not over they need to free the others so his return means it is a big moment for ukraine but it could also mean less attention to Political Prisoners actually right back to you than it because you mentioned sound asymmetry aid how they swap is being perceived so what then is the significance of us what place between ukraine and russia. Well present selenski definitely very upbeat selling this as the start of big changes ahead and a pause to peace lets have a listen to what you have to say. We need. 2 connections so im going to actually be going to president. If your 1st step we have to begin all the steps publicly called the steps you mean spiral since you know monday i have i just want to say about it. I hope well have a meeting in normandy permanently and well speak about it and will speak all the steps during. The future during the nearest future we have to do all the steps to finish these horrible war. So finishing this horrible was present so lets as lecky says i think that is optimism that we havent seen for a long time this is a Peace Process that has been stuck for years and hasnt been going anywhere but i think this is low hanging fruit as it were this was something that was relatively easy to do relatively small compromises having to be made on both sides the next steps will be much more painful this will be the bigger issues of providing some core kind of autonomy to these eastern ukrainian regions if their returns to kiev control and also what to do with all the people who say the separatist force is some kind of amnesty what is russia willing to give what is ukraine willing to give much less room for maneuver there and very tough negotiations ahead he says they have an economy in moscow and matthew cook for in kiev thank you very.
