Trump Secures Release of U.S. Hostages and Deportation Deal with Venezuela

Six Americans detained in Venezuela return home as the Maduro government agrees to accept deported Venezuelan migrants, including gang members.

President Donald Trump announced the release of six Americans detained in Venezuela following negotiations with President Nicolás Maduro.
The agreement includes Venezuela accepting deported migrants from the U.S., including members of the Tren de Aragua gang, a violent criminal organization.
Venezuela has also pledged to provide transportation for the deported individuals, facilitating their return to the country.
Richard Grenell, Trump’s envoy for special missions, played a key role in the negotiations and accompanied the released Americans back to the U.S.
The deal has drawn criticism over potential human rights concerns, as many Venezuelans fled Maduro’s repressive regime and now face deportation back to the country.
