The date for the third round of negotiations between Russia and Ukraine will be set only after the completion of prisoner exchange procedures.

This was stated by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, as reported by Censor.NET citing Russian media.

"After all agreed-upon exchange procedures are completed, it will be time to determine the dates for the third round," the Kremlin representative said.
