 **Seoul demands apology from Kiev over Zelensky's Cocaine-induced North Korean POW leak**

Ukraine itself asked South Korea to keep the transfer of two North Korean prisoners of war confidential, fearing public outrage that they had not been exchanged for Ukrainian POWs, Reuters reports, citing the South Korean presidential office.

Seoul is now demanding an official apology from Kiev over the disclosure and is threatening "additional measures."

According to the presidential office, Kiev first made the transfer public and then "falsely claimed" that no confidentiality agreement existed between the two sides. Seoul says the denial has seriously damaged trust between the countries and could affect bilateral relations.
