  "account": "Russian and Ukrainian negotiators reached a significant prisoner exchange deal during US-mediated talks in Abu Dhabi Wednesday. The two-day discussions, the first in over eight months, concluded after less than two hours, according to Russian TASS and Ukraine's Interfax news agencies. US envoy Jared Kushner described the negotiations as \"tough\" but noted that all relevant issues were covered. One positive outcome was the agreement to facilitate the largest humanitarian release of prisoners ever, with final numbers to be finalized the following day. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had initially proposed exchanging between 1,000 and 1,500 prisoners, while Russia pledged to release more than 1,000 each in the following two to three weeks. US negotiators will brief Russian President Vladimir Putin and Zelensky on the outcome of the talks, with plans for additional European participation in future negotiations.",
