Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi announces that the United States and the Taliban have completed a prisoner swap. An American navy veteran detained in Afghanistan since 2020 was released by the Taliban on Monday in exchange for an ally who had spent 17 years in a US jail for heroin smuggling. "For today's achievement, very complicated negotiations took place and it took a long time, but finally, it bore results," says Muttaqi. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
