Zelensky meets Witkoff and Kushner in Ireland, announces largest prisoner exchange

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky met with US President's special representatives Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner in Ireland on November 12, announcing Russia's agreement to the largest prisoner exchange. The meeting took place at Casement Aerodrome in Baldonnel, west of Dublin, following the US envoys' talks with Vladimir Putin in Moscow. Zelensky said the exchange would be unprecedented in scale, with thousands of people expected to return home. The American delegation also made progress on involving European partners in the next round of negotiations, which Zelensky called crucial for future security guarantees. A follow-up meeting of all negotiators is planned after recent talks in Abu Dhabi.
