00:00Even if some agreements are reached today, doubts will remain.
00:04What if they are never fulfilled?
00:06What if everything falls apart yet again?
00:09Sadly, we have seen it before.
00:11That's why I want to share my own expectations and hopes,
00:15and at the same time address those meeting today in Alaska.
00:19We don't know, and you don't know, how things will unfold after your talks.
00:25But there is a way to ensure this summit goes down in history no matter what,
00:30a way to guarantee that whatever happens next, the Alaska meeting will be remembered as a truly historic event.
00:37To achieve this, you must take an irreversible step, something that cannot be undone,
00:43something that won't disappear the very next day due to shifting geopolitical priorities.
00:49Namely, launch a new round of prisoner exchange.
00:53A face-to-face meeting offers a rare and invaluable opportunity for this.
00:59There is no need for years of shuttle diplomacy.
01:03You can simply exchange the lists and release the people.
01:07I know those lists are already prepared.
01:10Free Russian political activists and journalists.
01:13Free Ukrainian civilians.
01:15Free those in prison for anti-war statements and social media posts.
01:20After all, you are negotiating to end the war.
01:24So why should people remain behind bars for demanding exactly the same thing?
01:30Music snorting.
01:30.
01:30.
