Two days of talks between Russian and Ukrainian officials, mediated by the United States, have yielded agreement on a prisoner exchange but failed to make a breakthrough on ending the war, which is nearing the five-year mark. Russia’s chief ⁠⁠negotiator, Vladimir Medinsky, said at the talks ⁠⁠in the United Arab Emirates capital, Abu Dhabi, on Wednesday that both sides had agreed on a large-scale prisoner swap and that mutual understanding ⁠⁠had been achieved on some issues. Russia’s state-run news agency TASS reported that the prisoner exchange should happen in two to three weeks. If finalised, it would be the latest in a ⁠long line of such ⁠exchanges.
