Today’s captive release ‘only a start’, Biden says
“Today we can also be thankful for families being reunited with loved ones who have been held hostage for nearly 50 days,” the US president told reporters.
Biden said the deal was reached through “extensive US diplomacy”, including “numerous calls” he said he made to leaders across the region.
“This deal also is structured to allow a pause to continue” to allow more captives to be released. “That’s our goal,” he said. “It’s only a start, but so far it’s gone well.”
