Former US President Donald Trump has sharply criticized the recent prisoner exchange between Russia and the West, labeling it a 'victory for Putin.' This exchange, which involved 26 individuals, notably included American journalist Evan Gershkovich and former Marine Paul Whelan. Trump expressed concerns that such agreements could lead to more kidnappings, despite acknowledging the return of Gershkovich as a positive outcome.

The exchange, described as the largest since the Cold War, saw a mix of prisoners released from both sides, including alleged spies and political activists. Among those released were individuals imprisoned for opposing the war in Ukraine and for various charges related to espionage. The Kremlin welcomed the return of its citizens, with President Vladimir Putin personally greeting the released individuals at the airport, emphasizing their loyalty to the homeland.

As discussions about the exchange unfolded, Trump's previous claims that he could have secured the release of Gershkovich were scrutinized. Biden's administration was credited with orchestrating the negotiations, showcasing the importance of diplomacy in international relations. This development has sparked debates about Trump's assertions and the effectiveness of his foreign policy approach.
