The US continues to actively negotiate with Russia about a possible prisoner exchange. This was announced by US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken.
He emphasized that since the proposal to exchange prisoners, contacts with Moscow have been regular and the United States is trying to find “combinations” that can return the Americans to their homeland.

In addition, Blinken noted that it will be necessary to understand whether such interactions and communications will lead to real results.
After the arrest in Russia of basketball player Brittney Greiner, who was later found guilty of drug trafficking and sentenced to 9 years of imprisonment in a penal colony of the general regime, the American side offered an exchange to the Russian side. The United States offered to trade Viktor Bout of Russia for Brittney Griner and Paul Whelan.
