"Regarding the journalist from the United States who was operating under the guise of a reporter — more accurately, [this individual] undertook clearly intelligence-related missions — the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia played a significant role in this effort during the initial stage. We are grateful to him for his contribution, as it ultimately facilitated the return of our citizens to their homeland," Putin stated during the Eastern Economic Forum. Putin also noted the role of other countries in the Arab world. On August 2, the largest prisoner exchange between Russia and Western countries in recent years took place. Eight Russians have returned to their homeland.
