In a significant diplomatic breakthrough, Russia and Ukraine have conducted their first prisoner exchange in two months, with each side releasing 150 soldiers.
The high-stakes negotiations, facilitated by the United Arab Emirates, mark a critical moment in ongoing efforts to ease tensions between the two nations.The freed Russian soldiers were initially transferred to Belarus for medical care, psychological support, and the chance to reconnect with their families.
They will subsequently return to Russia for further rehabilitation.
Ukrainian troops, also released in equal numbers, were returned from Russian captivity as part of the carefully coordinated exchange.

Explained | Declining Support For Ukraine In Europe: What’s Behind The Shift?
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has publicly expressed frustration over the lack of a response from the United States on the current ceasefire proposal with Russia. As the war drags on, Zelensky continues to demand increased military and financial support from the U.S. and EU—including weapons, troop presence, sanctions on Russia, and investment in Ukraine's defense infrastructure.

Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky was slammed by Tucker Carlson for behaving “like a crazy person” during failed talks over a resource deal with the U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent revealed Zelensky derailed the agreement thrice, despite American aid keeping Ukraine afloat. The deal would have granted the U.S. first access to Ukraine’s natural resources. Carlson criticized Zelensky for his ungrateful attitude and dramatic behavior in front of Trump. While some Ukrainian officials fear a loss of sovereignty, U.S. hopes for a renewed round of talks remain.

French President Emmanuel Macron may soon take a leading role in representing the EU’s interests in potential talks with Russia over the Ukraine conflict, according to a report by The Telegraph. While UK’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer has ruled out engagement, Macron is reportedly open to negotiation “when the time is right.” With Washington’s efforts ongoing and Trump hesitant, Europe’s "coalition of the willing" is eyeing Paris to spearhead talks. Moscow has denied receiving formal proposals. Tensions remain high as ceasefire violations continue and fears of NATO escalation grow.

Poland has urged its citizens to prepare for a potential war or crisis by stockpiling at least three days’ worth of essential supplies, including food, water, medicine, and power banks. This warning follows escalating tensions in Europe, as the European Commission pushes for an €800 billion military buildup amid concerns over Russia. Meanwhile, Poland has also announced plans to mine its borders with Belarus and Russia’s Kaliningrad exclave. As fears of a major conflict grow, Moscow has dismissed Western claims of an impending Russian attack as “complete nonsense.”
