LIVE: Ukraine and Russia to conduct prisoner exchange

From Reuters.

Ukraine and Russia are expected to conduct a prisoner exchange — touted as a confidence-building step — in the Chernihiv region of Ukraine. Both countries accused each other of violating a new agreement to refrain from attacks on energy targets hours after it was agreed by Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. In a phone call between the U.S. and Russian presidents on Tuesday, Putin rejected a proposed full 30-day ceasefire, which had been sought by Trump and previously accepted by Ukraine.
