Ukraine and Russia Conclude Talks With Agreement on Prisoner Exchange

Members of the US, Russian and Ukrainian delegations, including United States Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, Secretary of Ukraine's National Security and Defence Council Rustem Umerov and head of Russian military intelligence (GRU) and head of Russian’s team in security talk Admiral Igor Kostyukov, attend the second round of trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

Ukraine and Russia ended their second day of peace negotiations with a notable breakthrough: an agreement to carry out a new prisoner swap. Delegations from both countries described the discussions as constructive, marking one of the few tangible steps forward in a conflict where diplomatic progress has been rare.

The agreement centers on exchanging captured soldiers, a humanitarian measure both sides have intermittently supported despite ongoing hostilities. Officials involved in the talks suggested that the deal could help build momentum for future negotiations, though major political and territorial issues remain unresolved.

While the broader path to peace is still uncertain, the prisoner‑swap agreement offers a rare moment of cooperation and a glimmer of relief for families awaiting the return of their loved ones.
