0:57Now Playing200 Ukrainians and 200 Russians returned home Thursday in the latest prisoner swap between the two countries.
In Ukraine, there were tearful reunions. Some of the freed prisoners were captured as early as 2022 during the siege of Mariupol, according to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy who thanked the U.S. for "making the exchange possible."
Negotiations to end the war remain at a standstill, but Kyiv and Moscow have regularly agreed to swaps like this.
