THIS DAY IN HISTORY
USA Nails It-Prisoner Release is an Incredible Feat of Diplomacy!
Look what unity can do!
Yesterday was an amazing day for the USA. We needed the wins!
Our President Joseph Biden orchestrated the delicate diplomacy of the largest prisoner swap since the cold war.
Over 70 Americans who were wrongfully detained and held hostage from over eight countries have been brought home during Biden’s administration. By far, yesterday’s prisoner swap is America’s finest moment we have seen this decade.
Through this incredible feat of diplomacy, 16 prisoners were released and now are in the loving arms of their wives, sons, daughters and parents. One young girl, Miriam Butorin, received the best birthday present ever; as her arms clutch her mother once again.
The release of Americans, Paul Whelan, Evan Gershkovich, Alsu Kurmasheva and British-Russian activist Vladimir Kara-Murza, through Joseph Biden and seven other countries is nothing short of a diplomatic, unifying feat of accomplishment.
“This is the essence of who we are as a country… There is nothing we can’t do when we work together,” President Biden said.
