US President Joe Biden recently made a significant announcement from the Oval Office regarding his decision to exit the 2024 presidential race and end his long career in public service. During this address, he revealed that a deal to secure the release of three American detainees - Evan Gershkovich, Paul Whelan, and Alsu Kurmasheva - was on the verge of completion.
Biden emphasized that his administration would spare no effort in bringing home Americans who were unjustly detained across the globe. This commitment culminated in a series of intricate negotiations involving multiple countries and key individuals.
