The Ukrainian ambassador to Tehran stresses his country’s commitment to saving Iranians' lives and helping them leave Ukraine
.
In talks with the head of the Eurasian First Office of Iran’s Foreign Ministry, Sergei Bordeliak, Ukraine’s ambassador to Tehran, pointed out the difficult situation in his country and blamed the delay and the failure of a number of Iranian students to leave Ukraine via the Polish border on the gathering of thousands of Ukrainians as well as other countries nationals at the border.
Bordeliak promised to continue contacts with relevant Ukrainian officials over the matter.
At the same time, he called for understanding the special situation of his country and stressed the need to respect the regulations pertaining to the priority of people with special conditions, especially the elderly and women.
It should be noted that a significant number of students and other Iranians living in Ukraine have in recent days left the country and entered Ukraine's neighbors.
This came after the escalation of tensions in Ukraine-Russia relations, and especially after the start of the war.
On Tuesday morning, the first group of Iranian students returned to Iran by a private flight, and in order for more of them to return, necessary coordination is underway with some countries, including Poland and Hungary.
