Kyiv, separatists exchange lists of captives on Friday - ex-Ukrainian President Kuchma

Minsk, September 5 (Interfax) - The Ukrainian government forces and the militants fighting in eastern Ukraine exchanged lists of captives at the negotiations in Minsk on Friday, former Ukrainian President Leonid Kuchma said.

"We've shared lists of hostages and are immediately starting the [swapping] process. Otherwise it's a dead end ahead. Let's decide immediately [on terminating the hostilities]. There can't be another way but peace. We're fed up with fighting," Kuchma told journalists in Minsk on Friday.
