Ukraine is counting on a large prisoner exchange with Russia in a format of 1,000 by 1,000 or 1,500 by 1,500. Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky stated this at a briefing on November 10.
According to him, the possibility of an exchange was discussed during the negotiations in Abu Dhabi. The American side intends to go to Russia with a proposal to hold an exchange.
Zelensky also said that the Russian delegation raised the issue of the territories, but emphasized that it must be resolved at the level of the leaders.
Today the negotiators plan to discuss in more detail the steps on the issues of escalation, energy issues, the situation in the Black Sea and the possibility of a prisoner exchange. In addition, the parties will consider the possibility of holding a tripartite meeting at the level of the leader.
