Trump Congrats Putin for 'Great Deal' in Recent Prisoner Exchange

According to SAEDNEWS, During a recent rally in Atlanta, Georgia, Trump addressed his supporters and remarked that Putin "had made another great deal," as reported by TASS.

However, Trump also pointed out that this deal was detrimental to Washington. "We got our people back, but boy did we make some horrible, horrible deals," the politician stressed.

On August 1, Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) announced that eight Russian nationals, either detained or convicted in several NATO countries, along with two minors, had returned to Russia following a prisoner swap at Ankara’s airport. Among those exchanged was Russian citizen Vadim Krasikov, who had been serving a life sentence in Germany. These Russians were swapped for a group of individuals who had acted in the interests of other nations.

Additionally, US President Joe Biden noted that Russia released 16 individuals as part of the prisoner swap, including former US Marine Paul Whelan and Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, both of whom had been convicted of espionage in Russia.
