Putin, Zelenskiy Discuss Another Prisoner Swap, Exchange New Year Wishes
Citat:
Russian President Vladimir Putin has spoken with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to discuss another prisoner swap as tensions ease between the two neighbors.
The two leaders also exchanged holiday greetings, according to a statement by Zelenskiy’s press service that was later confirmed by the Kremlin. The call was initiated by Zelenskiy, according to the Kremlin's readout.
It is the first time in six years that Putin has exchanged holiday greetings with his Ukrainian counterpart and testifies to a gradual thaw in relations between the two adversaries.
The Kremlin on December 30 published a list of countries whose leaders Putin had sent holiday wishes to. That list did not include Ukraine.
New Year’s is one of the most important holidays in former Soviet countries and the lack of a greeting can be seen as a snub.
Putin expressed a positive opinion about Zelenskiy during a meeting with business leaders last week, saying the Ukrainian leader was trying to build dialogue with Russia, Forbes reported, citing one of the participants. However, Putin said he did not expect a breakthrough, the business news magazine added.
