paul whelan might be exchanged. hope that that is not which we're thinking certainly for paul's family, who have written an e-mail today talking about what a disaster this is for paul. that they don't begrudge brittney griner's release. they are really pleased she's going home, but this is so difficult for paul, kept in a russian jail approaching his fourth christmas without his family. we understand that a u.s. official did speak with paul today and explain this was either a case of no americans going home or brittney griner going home. so this is going to be a bitter day for him. i think what russia gets out of this, though, they get viktor bout back. for russia, he was a really key prisoner. if you talked at new point over of the last few years about who russiaed back most, it was victor pout. they say he wasn't an arms dealer. he wasn't this notorious figure who we have had hollywood films made out of. so the fact that he's coming home to his wife and his daughter is a huge thing for russia. they are saying that

marine paul whelan. he remains left behind in russia we just spoke to him from behind bars and we'll bring that to you in moments. we'll also get a live interview with the white house about all of this this hour. now before that, let get find out what led up to this big moment. kylie atwood is at state department. how did this play out? >> reporter: months in the marking. we reported over the summer that the biden administration had put a deal on the table with russia to try and get out both brittney griner and paul whelan. that isn't the deal that came to fruition today. of course, the white house and cherelle griner, who is brittney griner wife, welcoming the news that brittney griner is coming home after serving in russian prison for about ten months with cherelle saying they're family is whole again today and not all families are whole today because paul whelan who has been detained in russia for about four years now, was not part of this swap. and president biden essentially said from the white hous

paul whelan is not. a senior official told nbc news that the russians took whelan off the table telling the u.s. the choice was either one or none. can you give us unsights into how the negotiations go and how tough these kinds of decisions are? >> yeah, it sounds like from the outside certainly in the beginning, there was a conversation about a two for one that brittney griner and paul whelan would potentially be exchanged for viktor bout. because vladimir putin. ed him really badly. so atten one point, the russians probably did contemplate it. it was offered as an option. that's what we were pushing for. but it sounds like the russians decided we are putting paul whelan in a different category. they are alleging that he is a spy. the u.s. government has denied that. now there are other opportunities perhaps down the road. the germans are holding two russians who are probably intelligence operatives. one of them was just seized recently in the attempt in germany to overturn or to stage a coup like janua

home. >> how is paul doing? when was the last time you spoke with him? >> well, i haven't spoken to him in-person in quite a while but he speaks with my parents and able to call them this morning. he is doing extremely well under the circumstances in terms of his resilience and courage. but he is also devastated that once again somebody is going home and it's not him. he's been there almost four years. but he is a, a bright fellow. he understands the situation. it's russia, who's created this. it's russia who is dividing up the prisoners and trying to cause as much dissension back in the u.s. as they can and doing a fine job of it. we need to bring it to an end. >> the white house negotiating for your brother's release is different than its release for brittney griner or trevor reed, for that matter released earlier this year. take a listen what john kerwery said earlier today. >> has to do with the nature of the sham charges based on espionage. that's the hook that the russians seem to have in him, and we're ju

[video] >> we are happy to hear that she's coming home. i wonder if the administration is concerned about whether there is precedent set about with the government is willing to trade in exchange to release americans abroad. >> this was not a decision the president made lightly. he believes it was the right thing to do to secure brittany's release. this was a commitment he had. a promise he made. what we are left with is either we bring brittany home or no one at all. one of my colleagues said today that he believed there was a moral obligation here to get her home. this does not mean the president will stop with brittany. he will

while we have not yet succeeded in securing paul's release, we are not giving up. we will never give up. >> putin is difficult to read but what is your sense of what happens now? in saying they treat it differently, mr. whelan is charged with espionage and the russians obviously treat that -- he says he is innocent. he says flatly he is completely innocent but treat that as a much higher offense than drug smuggling obviously but what next, and if you could not get paul whelan home for viktor bout, what would the price be? what would the president have to do? >> well, i think paul whelan's brother was correct as he mentioned earlier on cnn that there has to be another prominent russian, you know, maybe a spy, somebody that they can trade. right now i am not understand who that might be. i know that there have been some considerations in the past but i'm not sure that there's anyone prominent enough for the russians right now to have a deal on the table and that's kind of the subtext i'm reading. that said, i do think that this deal, it is a success for putin. he see

the real question here is how paul whelan will now be able to get home. he said in his statement that it's clear that the united states doesn't now have any concessions to offer russia because we know russia really wanted viktor bout. he's questioning what else could they offer up to get paul whelan home. >> honorable comments from the whelan family, they're happy for the griner family, but devastating news that paul whelan is not included there. kylie atwood, thanks so much. abby, yo morning and let out a huge sigh of relief. this has been for her, as she said, the darkest time of her life. this is a young couple that's been through quite a lot together. i think we have a little bit of what she said from the podium. let's play it. >> today my family whole. as you all are aware, there are so many other families who are not hole. b.g. is not here to say this. i will gladly speak on her behalf and say b.g. and i will remain committed to the work of getting every american home including paul whose family is in our hearts today as we celebrate b.g. being home

we had no choice but to take brittney griner over paul whalen. putin demanded that. >> we've not forgotten about paul whalen who has been unjustly detained in russia for years. this was not a choice of which american to bring home. >> tucker: this was not a choice of which american to bring home. really? it clearly was a choice and we know it was a choice because the first accounts of the prisoner swap with russia said it was a choice. earlier today, andrea mitchell of nbc, this is somebody who has been in washington covering news for more than 50 years, someone who is deeply supportive of the joe biden administration, contributed to a story that contained this line. "the kremlin gave the white house the choice of either griner or whelan or none." so mitchell's piece attributed to a senior u.s. official, it was not a guess, it was sourced. and then, as with the earlier reporting on paul pelosi last month, that account was scrubbed. the kremlin ultimately gave the white house the choice of either griner or no one. in other words, joe biden's versi

i think paul has done what he can to try to survive. he has techniques that music each day to, you know, i think help keep his morale up. he has phone calls to our parents, and i think we just have to support him to try and go day by day until he can get home. i mean, the difficulty is how much to ask of a person who's been there for 4 years. he's got 12 more years to go. at what point does a person really just give up when they're not seen a resolution? you've been working tirelessly since he was the tame to free him and to bring him home. can you tell us more about the work you and your family do to free your brother? you obviously do a lot of media work, but your efforts go way beyond that dumping? yes, i drew the short straw in the media. it was not my choice. i'm a white private person and this is all very uncomfortable to me, but you do what you can for your, for your loved one. i think what has really been exposed to us and to the families of the other 50 americans around the world who are being wrongfully detained. is that the r

you look at paul whelan as a spy. rightly or wrongly, you know, they are considering him basically the way they would consider, you know, an espionage agent, and that's been denied of course, but he was captured in 2018, outside of the context of this current ukraine war and they decided to deal with him on the same terms they were dealing with her. and they won't deal with us for him on some level, if there is some trade to be had, but the question is do who do they want that would be equivalent in their minds to him. having given up viktor bout and given up one of our trading chip, one of our bargaining chips that we could have had that would have been valuable to moscow, do we have another incentive to get paul whelan, that's the unclear part. i think the ambassador is right to mention mark vogel, another hostage held in moscow and the americans have not sought to put him in the same category as either brittney griner or paul whelan. he was convicted of drug smuggling for carrying a very small amount of marijuana t

detained americans, including paul whelan. let's welcome david whelan, paul whelan's brother. thank you so much for taking the time to be with us. i wonder if you think that the attention on britney's return could help pressure the white house, and the kremlin to move more quickly on polls case. >> i don't think so. i think that maybe it reminds anybody in the white house who thought that maybe they could take a moment to breathe that there really won't be a moment. there is a bit of a reset going on i think as they try to figure out how they can recalibrate to bring paul home. the things that they were trying after the substantial proposal that have been made in the summer did not work out. so i think that they need to come up with something new. but i think they're already dedicated to it. the people you speak to in the white house and state department, national security council, they are already ahead of us moving that way. >> as you well know, the state department has said the kremlin told them that it was griner, or no on

paul: is that where we are?k that russia made planning the offensive planning through belarus that would be aimed that they are in a position for those new offenses. and i don't think that they had that combined arms capability to do that we have seen multiple failures in russian logistics and the russian president this week and with those russian failures and things like getting encrypted information and this is more of a public relations stunt than a serious indication of the offensive from belarus. paul: we really don't see any sign that putin is willing to negotiate any terms that ukraine could accept. and the strategies seems that the ukrainian cities and electricity plants out of commission to terrorize the population. is that how you see the strategy and support for ukraine? >> that's exactly how i see the strategy. in military terms is called the punishment strategy. and then to target the industrial base of the adversary and in this case can't do that because the industrial bases in the west. as the civ

i haven't spoken to paul since october, 2018. he is only right now allowed to speak to our pa ar he h rituals, things that he does every day to try to survive, things like singing the u.s. national anthem every morning when he gets up. partly i think because he wants to sing in partly because it irritates the guards. he's been doing these things now for four years. it's hard to imagine that he's gonna have to continue to do it and the substantial offer that the u.s. government made that last summer to bring paul and to bring brittany home has built some hope, i think it is crashed down today for pollen is gonna be hard to see him pull that back together. >> do you see a lane for a new negotiation? >> certainly. i think, as joey said, there are americans being wrongfully detained around the world and whether it's pollen russia or brittney in russia, whether it's russia come all imagine syria or kiley and mark seaward in china. each one of those is a separate case, and each one has to be dealt with with its own particular constrain

had insists on trying to get paul whelan out. with the prior notifications this time, unlike last spring where there was another false start, with the prior notification to the whelan family this was going to happen. they were again going to be disappointed. david whelan said that made a big difference. he was able to prepare his parents who are 85 and 83 years old, that whelan would not be coming home for christmas, but happily, brittney griner was. >> it's an incredibly thoughtful statement and he expresses his joy and relief. we don't want to miss the moment here. she has been freed after nearly ten months. can you talk about the type of condition she may have been kept in? i know at the very end there, she was sent to a notorious penal colony in russia. >> exactly. at the beginning of november after her appeal was lost, she was taken from the detention jail where she had been at least more accessible to occasional visits from the u.s.m bessie officials and taken to this penal colony and the conditions we understand were terri

when paul was 7 years old did elizabeth die?onths later, he lost his father, who died in ropsha, under unclear circumstances, and his mother became empress, there were rumors that she promised to transfer the throne to her son as soon as he became an adult. that is, after 14 years, the promised had to wait 34 years. as a teenager, pavel was prone to frequent neurosis and depression. at the same time, the teachers noted the great abilities and interest of the young prince in the exact sciences , the art of mystical philosophy. he had a cherished dream of becoming a knight of the order of malta , which he read about in the old book. and being an emperor seemed to him a terrible and difficult fate; he was ashamed of his mother, whom he considered depraved, was afraid of her favorites, was burdened by the frivolous atmosphere of the court. the only consolation was friendship with the young count. andrei razumovsky, pavel wrote enthusiastic letters to him. your friendship has produced a miracle in me. i begin to renounce my former su

but now we have to concentrate on paul whelan. make an effort to get him out before the end of the year. because i think his family deserve that. he is wrongfully detained. he is a marine. he deserves to come out. >> he has been there and detained four years now. paul whelan spoke to cnn, governor, about how russia is treating him. i want you listen to what he had to say. listen to this. >> they've entered me to at a higher level than other criminals of my sort. and for whatever reason, i'm treated differently than another individual here from a western country that's also on a charge of espionage. so even though we're both here for espionage, i'm treated much differently than he is. and my treatment is also much different than others held for espionage at other prisons. >> so governor, why is he treated so differently? and where do you see talks on whelan going from here? >> well, we have tried. my foundation for four years to get whelan out. and somehow it always falls short. we tried it during the trump administration early on

: paul whelan. this will be a huge issue. the whelan family, of course, has put pressure on the administration as well. he was arrested in 2018. he has been held there ever since. he was accused of spying. the russians claim they found a usb drive on his person that included the names of intelligence officers. he has really been in the news with brittney griner. she, of course, has the celebrity. there are so many people who came forward and pleaded for her release. she had the unfortunate timing, she was arrested about a week before the russians invaded ukraine and has been held ever since. she, of course, in june said, i did have hashish oil with me thinking she'd get a lesser sentence. that did not happen. this is, of course, great news, but the whelan family is going to be hugely disappointed, george. >> thank you, martha. want to bring in steve ganyard. we know this is a straight up swap so far, this is the details we have for viktor bout, the arms dealer. one of the big questions, does this ha

we never forgot about brittney or paul whelan who is detained in russia for years. this was not a choice. we brought home trefer reed when we had a chance. russia has treated paul's case differently than brittney and we have not secured his release, we are not giving up and will never give up and we remain in close touch with the family and they have mixed emotions today and we will keep negotiating for paul's release. i guarantee that. i urge russia to do the same to have paul's treatment be maintained until we can bring him home. i don't want any american to sit wrongfully detained one extra day. biden administration has brought home dozens of americans who have been held hostage and many of whom have been held since i took office. we remember the other americans who are being wrongfully detained or anywhere else in the world. a priority for my administration and every person of my administration involved in this and will continue to bring home every american who continues to endure such an injustice and prevent more american families from suffering from separatio

paul: so what did you do?d a lot of exit formalities to complete, so that took most of my day. paul: and all that time you're thinking, how do i retrieve the work you've done for your portfolio? >> right. it was driving me crazy. had to compromise on a lot of great companies because everyone instantly wants to see work. paul: and she could not access any of hers. so, massive disruption in tech, massive layoffs. a harbinger of ep recession? >> silicon valley has burned down many times. and every time it burns down, it reinvents itself. but this time, it isn't a forest fire. it's just a hedge trimming. paul: longtime valley entrepreneur vivek wadhwa. >> this is nothing like the dot comurst. the dot com burst had global consequences and it was huge. it set the economy back for years to come. this is just a minor correction. paul: economist betsey stevenson agrees. >> what i'm seeing is a sector that hired more than most other sectors did during the pandemic. they're pulling back a little bit with layoffs. and we'
