No one knew who this Russian prisoner was before he was in the talks to be released. I’m sure there are more. If there aren’t more, there can be in the future. Also, it’s not ONLY prisoner exchanges that happen. Russians can ask for different trades. When we don’t have to be in Russia for reliable news it makes less sense to put ourselves in the position to HAVE to trade
