Released the only American "wrongfully detained" in Russia

Stephen Hubbard, a retired US teacher held by Russia, was released after a meeting between US envoy Steve Witkoff and Vladimir Putin. Hubbard had been imprisoned for over four years, accused of fighting alongside Ukrainian forces. His release was framed as a humanitarian gesture by both sides, with Trump praising the outcome while criticizing Biden's administration for delays in negotiations. Hubbard's family expressed concerns about his health during his detention, where he reportedly faced mistreatment. Despite his release, several other Americans remain imprisoned in Russia under various charges.
