Jailed ex-US marine Reed exchanged for Russian pilot Yaroshenko – Moscow

US national Trevor Reed, sentenced to nine years' jail in Russia in 2020, has been exchanged for Russian pilot Konstantin Yaroshenko, who had been serving a 20-year sentence in a US prison since 2010, Russia’s Foreign Ministry announced on Wednesday.

Yaroshenko’s wife Viktoria told media that her husband had been handed over to Russian officials in Turkey. Meanwhile, Reed was escorted to Vnukovo airport near Moscow and flew back to the US from there.

US President Joe Biden said that the “negotiations that allowed us to bring Trevor home required difficult decisions” which he does “not take lightly.” Russian diplomats told journalists that the swap was the result of a “lengthy negotiation process.”
