The Kremlin says that a Russian citizen has been freed in the United States in exchange for Moscow’s release of American Marc Fogel. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Wednesday that the unidentified individual would return to Russia “in the coming days” and when they are in Russia their name would be revealed. Fogel is an American history teacher who was deemed wrongfully detained by Russia. He has been released and was returned to the U.S. on Tuesday in what the White House described as a diplomatic thaw that could advance negotiations to end the war in Ukraine.
