Ukraine And Russia Agree To Swap Dead, Wounded Troops
5 weeks ago
Representatives of Russia and Ukraine met for their second round of direct peace talks in just over two weeks. But aside from agreeing to swap thousands of their dead and seriously wounded troops, they reported no progress toward ending the 3-year-old war. The talks unfolded a day after a string of stunning long-range attacks by both sides. The Ukrainian delegation said Russia presented a memo setting out the Kremlin’s terms for ending hostilities. Ukrainian Defense Minister Rustem Umerov told reporters Kyiv officials would need a week to review the document and decide on a response.
