US President Joe Biden spoke with the families of three Americans detained in Afghanistan by the Taliban and emphasized his commitment to bringing home Americans wrongfully held overseas. Efforts to secure their release continue. The Biden administration has been negotiating with the Taliban about a proposal to release the three Americans in exchange for a high-profile prisoner held in Guantanamo Bay. The Taliban had countered the proposal with an offer to exchange two other detainees. Biden has brought home more than 75 Americans unjustly detained around the world, and his administration also brought home all Americans detained in Afghanistan before the US military withdrawal.
