Brittney Griner Freed From Russian Detention In Swap For ‘Merchant Of Death’ – Truth Tent

Russia freed WNBA star Brittney Griner on Thursday in a dramatic high-level prisoner exchange, with the U.S. releasing notorious Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout, U.S.officials said. The swap, at a time of heightened tensions over Ukraine, achieved a top goal for President Biden, but carried a heavy price — and left behind another American who has been jailed for nearly four years in Russia.
