Venezuela has released ten detained Americans in a move aimed at easing sanctions on the country, as announced by the government in Caracas. The release was part of a negotiated prisoner exchange facilitated by Qatar. In exchange, the United States freed an individual accused of money laundering, reportedly having close ties to Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. Our US Correspondent, Benji Hyer, provides further details on this agreement.
