WASHINGTON (Reuters) -U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Friday that 10 Americans detained in Venezuela have been released.
“I want to thank my team at the @StateDep & especially President @nayibbukele for helping secure an agreement for the release of all of our American detainees, plus the release of Venezuelan political prisoners,” Rubio said in a post on X.
El Salvador’s government would send detained Venezuelans home in exchange for Americans held in Venezuela, two U.S. government officials earlier told Reuters.
