This sort of election interference was not on my bingo card.
They are already parading those two POWs around saying that the Russian treated them better than the Ukrainians did and presenting themselves as heroes for managing to get them out.

Makes sense from Russia PoV,
Send them to a third country where they will be able to avoid being sent back to the meatgrinder to fight against you. No more resources spent on holding them.Â
Ukraine could do the same if they can find a country to accept Russian PoW as asylum seekers.
The only consideration is making sure your side has more PoW than the other in order to maintain a net parity for exchanges.Â
