The United States and Iran have agreed to a prisoner swap. Xiyue Wang, a Princeton University graduate student who was detained in Iran in 2016 and charged with spying, will be released. In exchange, the U.S. will release an Iranian researcher. Both countries credit the Swiss government for brokering the deal.

the heck he go to Iran? keep that guy there. wasted resources.
under trump literally every non white americans were saved some jail in usa and outside the country! lol. the irony since he's the most racist president ever!
Funny how they say Swiss gov but not even mention trump for getting this man released.
The fake news will bury this quick.
Who is the Iranian researcher? What were his charges?
I’ll trade you my human for your human..
This could have been done long ago, Iranian Javad Zariff was talking about it all the time, but US wouldn't listen.
I think I will take a vacation….. Where should I go.??? North Korea.? Iran.? Russia.? Afghanistan.? Somalia.?
Better idea. The Cote d'azur has way nicer hotels, & facilities for tourists.
Thank you for this news. Please visit and read my Iran predictions which are now coming true.
If Obama had made this prisoner swap, conservatives would be spending the whole day claiming that Masoud Soleimani was a secret spy for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard and how dare Obama negotiate with our enemies.
You will not catch me in North Korea or Iran…. ever
Why aren’t we going to war yet
#FakeNews
Meanwhile former American marine still held in Russia! Shouldn't Trump exchanged the Russians NRA spy instead of just letting her go after 7 months in jail. Let's not make trumps buddy putin angry while at the same time Russian hackers have stolen hundreds of millions of American dollars and Russia will never extradite them since Russian government gets a cut of the profits. Why are we being nice to these cowards!
Thanks to President Trump, and you all know it.
Hope they check him for diseases. Nothing like a prisoner as a Trojan horse.
If, he was actually smart he would've never gone there in the first place.
Trump is making deals with Iran!!! IMPEACH!!!! IMPEACH!!!!!
That researcher has knowledge on nukes bet
well, this kinda tells you something
things are moving with iran
trump has a way
Lesson learned. DON'T GO TO IRAN!!!
All of the suddenly he is only american, not asian american.
The U.S will release a researcher who was probably detained for a good reason and Iran will release some kid who didn’t even do anything.
The word Swiss is now synonymous with peace in my brain now
Lmfaooo shoulda let the dude rot in jail for going to iran
