MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Glischinskaya, who was accused of separatism and treason and detained in Odessa in April 2015, arrived in Moscow with an infant born in prison.

Didenko was serving a prison term in a Ukrainian colony on charges of encroachment on territorial integrity of Ukraine.

According to the Kremlin administration, the release of the journalists was facilitated by efforts of the Ukrainian president's Envoy for humanitarian issues at the Contact Group on Ukraine Viktor Medvedchuk.
