The three-nation agreement marks a diplomatic win for Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, advances President Donald Trump’s effort to repatriate Americans imprisoned overseas, and delivers on a prisoner swap proposal initiated months ago by Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele, The Associated Press reported.
A group of 10 Americans freed in a hostage exchange with Venezuela included a U.S. Navy sailor and a water sports fan, reports say. When contacted for comment, the U.S. State Department told Newsweek on Saturday that for privacy reasons, the individuals would not be identified nor their cases disclosed.
The Trump administration's negotiations with Nicolas Maduro's regime should not distract from the hundreds of political prisoners held in Venezuela.
