President Trump announced the release of Marc Fogel, an American teacher imprisoned in Russia on drug charges. This development was the result of negotiations led by Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff, who secretly worked to secure Fogel's freedom. Fogel had been sentenced to 14 years but was designated wrongfully detained late last year by the Biden administration. The deal occurred amid strained U.S.-Russia relations, and while it remains unclear if something was exchanged, it suggests potential diplomatic thawing between the nations amid the backdrop of the Ukraine conflict.
