After President Joe Biden proved the claim wrong on Thursday by securing the release of Gershkovich and others in a multi-country prisoner exchange, Trump posted a series of skeptical questions on social media. Among other things, Trump wrote: “Are we releasing murderers, killers, or thugs? FactCheck.org debunked this Trump claim about his record on securing the release of American prisoners abroad when he previously made it in 2022. Trump acknowledged at the time that this was a prisoner exchange, telling reporters in 2019: “Yeah, we’re very happy to have our hostage back. And there was a one-on-one hostage swap.”Federal prosecutors also dropped charges against the Iranian scientist’s two co-defendants soon after the prisoner exchange.

After all, the United States does not do deals with its well-meaning friends to free hostages or wrongly detained Americans. There is no perfect deal to free imprisoned Americans and the agreement with Iran is especially divisive. In this way dealing with US enemies can be a sign of political strength rather than weakness. Criticism from the likes of former President Donald Trump and Pence is politicized in the context of their presidential campaigns – and ignores their own deals to free Americans. Moscow is subsequently currently driving a relentless bargain over the fate of imprisoned Americans Paul Whelan and Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich.

Teheranul şi Washingtonul au căzut de acord în ceea ce priveşte un schimb de prizonieri, concomitent cu deblocarea fondurilor iraniene din SUA, conform postului iranian de televiziune. Iranul susţine că circa 20 de miliarde de dolari din veniturile sale din ţiţei au fost îngheţate în ţări precum Coreea de Sud, Irak şi China, după sancţiunile impuse de SUA în 2018, când fostul preşedinte american Donald Trump a retras SUA din acordul nuclear internaţional cu Iranul. Anul trecut, într-un gest neaşteptat, Iranul a eliberat un militar american, deţinut de doi ani. De asemenea, la sfârşitul lui 2019, SUA şi Iranul au procedat la un schimb de deţinuţi între iranianul Massoud Soleimani şi americanul Xiyue Wang, într-un rar gest de cooperare între cele două state. Schimbul a fost făcut în Elveţia.
