French Citizen Louis Arnaud Released After 20 Months in Iranian Prison

President Macron thanks Oman for mediation and urges Iran to free remaining French detainees.

Louis Arnaud was arrested in September 2022 during anti-government protests in Iran.
He was sentenced to five years in prison on national security charges in November 2023.
Arnaud's release follows diplomatic efforts by France, with significant help from Oman.
Three other French citizens remain imprisoned in Iran, with calls for their immediate release.
The detentions have strained Franco-Iranian relations, with accusations of 'state hostage taking.'
