Victoria aljazeera matthew cup for as editor at the kiev post he explains what the president transfers mean for Ukraine Russia relations. I think this is a positive step and it shows that there is the ability to negotiate over important things but i think that in order to ease tensions between the 2 countries and stop the war in Eastern Ukraine and resolve the issue there are a lot of other issues that need to be resolved and many of them are much more difficult than Prisoner Exchanges this was not a big compromise by anyone the biggest compromise here was ukraine deciding to handle human someone the m. 817 suspect or witness to russia this is a big victory president skins a big victory for ukraine as for the man who was a suspect or a witness to the mh 17 downing but would you meet someone this is of course what i meant when i said perhaps russian you did someone back at this moment of course the netherlands would have preferred that he not be handed over although the investigation and that 7 did manage to question him and he was also questioned by the ukrainian Security Services but i think some mark there was that there was a challenging issue here russia wanted him back in this exchange they made that clear and crane that the value of getting their own prisoners back was much higher than simply keeping this man and handing him over to the dutch so i think that was the difficult choice for ukraine theres a likely was an International Element to it and the russian president met with french president mccraw i think believe it was several weeks ago and its likely they discussed this issue there at the same time there it looks like also just a matter of certain agreements came together at this moment there was a lot of effort put forward and perhaps there was a need to on the russian side also to get some people back too and that led to this prisoner swap happening now and the exact reasons why now are hard to understand plenty more ahead on the aljazeera news hour including yet another blow to Boris Johnson as a member of his cabinet resigns criticizing the way hes handling both backset and his own party.
