a former marine goose give it your wall street journal reporter became the story and thursday's paper also fried was russian. american journalist also curl machine . in return, russia received several newly freed prisoners, including that him credit card who was convicted in germany in 2021 of killing a former chechen rebel in berlin. in moscow president vladimir putin personally welcome the free prisoners. the exchange took place in the turkish capital congress and involved prisoners from poland, slovenia in norway, in addition to germany in the us. happy birthday to president biden led the families of release prisoners and singing happy birthday to the daughter of karma. she, as her mother was in route to the u. s. finance, it'd be extra inch was only made possible because the u. s. had strong relations with its allies. that is possibly a settled that a good republican rival, donald trump, who is talked of pulling the us out of nato and other international alliance. that

point was emphasized by the president's national security advisor, today's exchange and they speak of diplomacy. that honestly could only be achieved by his direction the professionals, international security, foreign policy, and intelligence community work tirelessly and secure the release of 16 individuals who are entertained in russia, dividing administration insist, all of the prisoners released by russia were wrongfully detained. the exchange was historic, but administration officials say not a sign of warming relations between the us and russia. it doesn't sound like there's a major change in relations between the us and russia. there has been no change. this is a, a, a good day because american citizens or are able to come home and are incredibly proud of the work that has happened to get that done. but as i just said, rushes aggression into ukraine continues. invalid administration, official say,

continues to give russia and incentive to imprison america and other citizens, john henry l. g 0 washington. the semen saw so that salts was in the color to receive some of the prisoners who had been released. he told reporters by the end had an obligation to protect its citizens. no one made the decision lightly to deport the matter who had been sentenced to life in prison up to on a few years in detention. the state's interest enforcing the prison sentence had to be weighed against the risk to life and limb of innocent people and prisons in russia and i and those unjustly imprisoned for political reasons. and this is why it was important for us to have an obligation to protect german nationals as well as of solar diety, with a usa does a set of us and that has this update now from the time and capital. but it, for quite a big moments here in germany, a playing a key role in this mess of the prison, the ex changed is swap that has to be months in the making. basically now 12 people

have arrived in cologne and the western part of germany where all of charles so the chancellor was there to welcome them and they are 5, the german national, some with dual nationality and also 7 people locked up in the russian prison. the opposition figures, but also people of it's very small charge of some people who have been competing against the war and ukraine, for example, by putting stickers on the products in the, in the supermarket in russia. so these people are all brought back, brought to germany, also to give them asylum. and it was a fairly tough decision. very difficult decision. the chancellor. all actual sad because he had to let go a convicted assessing the fight in classic or for us here in prison. because he assassinated a field commander from a church now in 2019, and this was a man that's a presence with and very much wants us to be returned to russia. but now in return

to germany has managed s o actual situs. so give freedom and also the lives of back to all these prisoners in russia. and he says he has an obligation also to help to him and nationals who who are being kept in prison in russia. so now this is a bit of sweet moments also here in germany, but all of shows definitely sad. he was happy at the end that this also so many months. and so many difficult diplomatic exchanges, especially with russia, has come together. step 5, some else's era, bowling. the turkish intelligence agency coordinated the prisoners swapping 9, correct? well, and much of the focus has been on the 3 us citizens. other countries also tried the vital role in ensuring the swap went ahead. 12 german nationals and russian. the political prisoners were also included in the deal. among them was re co creator

who was sentenced to death and the roost in j know of the being charged with terrorism activities. h russian citizens are returning home from fort european countries. these on no way. poland, jimmy, and supposing you include 4 people accused of spying for russia to hock is a businessman and a former high ranking f as be cut off, who was serving a life sentence in germany from linda. well, some of the amana is and associates for the united services institute, and author of putin as well on ukraine. he says germany had initially been opposed to the deal. it was for a long time, the as dates was the theatre, the swap, and germany was resisting it because the classic odd was deemed to be attract because class, because that was the agent he shot at darcy. this is an inside german territory, and they were concerned that he could be involved in further political interference or political violence operations inside the german territory or you're paying

territory more broadly. i think it's depressed as a multi level coalition. the united states being able to partner with countries as far as norway. so the inter here on this i probably can have it is germany that he want to be the soul that can drilling this deal. so that's why the germans edge on assigned it is really quite remarkable. i did some discussions valued in the aftermath events, right. and seeing from us the mission circles as well as in the american media. how about the possibility of creating a kind of needle tape body for illegal detentions and for authors changed by governments? hi, russia and china and ron had him and see to do this. so this is a historic moment, possibly a something. so for razor multi lateral cooperation is from an overall there had been some major prisoner changes as the end of the cold war particular, but we saw 2010 with the release of the illegals. but this is the biggest uh, by far since the end of the cold war, the

his assassination is being viewed here as a work of israel with the help of the united states, washington says he played no part in it and had no prior knowledge of the attack. israel has not commented the time for the occupation to attack without response. he's over, they've done something and they must pay the price, they must be held responsible. america is responsible for this. no crime is committed by the occupation without the criminal america. cd auto reigning official . see the strike on arabian soil as a declaration of war. and they have promised revenge a successful will see evading the impossible of, of this time around. the response will be different in the last one and then phone regional countries in advance about the timing of the retaliation for vincent disaster. but i think this time it's responsible be a surprise and it will come much sooner. on april 13th, iran launched more than $300.00 drones and missiles towards israel,

in response to an air stripe on its consulate in damascus. 2 weeks before israel responded by attacking your wrong air defense systems. you are doing a times nuclear facility is well heavy as house the nation has. once again forces raining officials to make it difficult decision. one that's ultimately up to the supreme leader. if iran attacks israel again, it's unlikely to act alone. the so called resistance friends, which includes the who sees in yemen, has of a lot and level. and the popular mobilization forces in iraq will be expected to take parts, making this critical moments for the middle east door such a bar out 0. and the whitehouse says the us and israel have discussed new military deployments to defend tennessee against threats, including ballistic massages and drugs. the measures were discussed in a phone call between us present turbine is many prime minister benjamin netanyahu on thursday. both tyrone and his blog have filed to avenge this weeks attacks

a decent size because he some heavy down pools, stretching down through florida to cuba and haiti, and quite possibly jamaica this whole air of yours is susceptible. so some big dime polls i think in the next day or so, that's true for most of the central america, including a good half of a mexico, with zip pacific coast, like to be at its width is the focus maybe for the south side of jose. so we then towards panama as well. and then if you take the confidence of south america, you can cut off the really seasonal range bad here. so as to the potential for funding and that cut all of the columbia, but not much the south is that. but if you do go further science and look at what's coming in from the pacific is when tonight is the proper winter storm and all the way down the and the in chains are most. and she laid down towards patagonia, you can see anything up to a meter of fresh snow falling from this storm on the lease side. for the most part is relatively warm. i'm pretty fine the
