VATICAN CITY, February 8 (Reuters): Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy asked Pope Francis on Saturday for help to win the release of prisoners of war held by Russia and Russian-backed separatists.

“(The pope) does everything possible to achieve peace and harmony throughout the world,” Zelenskiy said in a tweet after their meeting at the Vatican.

“I asked for help with the release of Ukrainians captured in Donbass, Crimea and Russia,” he said.
