US was not required to give anything in return for Stephen Hubbard’s release ‘out of respect for President Trump’, he claims
As voters struggle with the rising cost of living and gas prices up 45% since the Iran War, Trump on the campaign trail this week has also repeated his $5,000 cash promise to every American adult if the Republicans win the House and Senate.
That’s a $1.2 trillion cash splash. Lawmakers in his own party have questioned where the money will come from while Democrats have called it blatant vote-buying scheme.
The United States, out of respect for President Trump, was not required to give anything in return – an unprecedented situation for Russia.
There was no “swap” necessary for this release. This major return should have taken place long ago through the Biden Administration, which got nowhere in its negotiations with the Kremlin. Stephen is on his way back home.
