## Resource

Russia is cautiously optimistic about restarting US-mediated peace talks with Ukraine, as Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov confirms renewed diplomatic contact and “political will” to negotiate — despite lingering deep disagreements over territorial concessions. Meanwhile, prisoner exchanges remain a key diplomatic lever, with Russia recently releasing American Robert Gilman at Trump’s request, echoing past swaps including the high-profile August 2024 deal that freed U.S. journalist Evan Gershkovich and other detained citizens.
