Russia has released US basketball star Brittney Griner in a
prisoner exchange, US and Russian officials have said.
Russia’s foreign ministry said she had been traded for Viktor
Bout, a Russian arms dealer jailed in the United States.
The exchange took place at Abu Dhabi airport in the United
Arab Emirates on Thursday, Russian news agencies reported.
US President Joe Biden said Griner, a two-time Olympic gold
medalist, was “on her way home”.
“She is safe. She is on a plane. She is on her way home,” Biden
wrote in a Tweet.
Biden would make remarks at 8:30am (13:30 GMT), the White
House said.
