Freed American Hostage Marc Fogel lands in the US after prisoners with Russia

Marc Fogel, an American detained in Russia since 2021, landed back in the United States on Tuesday.

Fogel, a history teacher who worked at the Anglo-American school in Moscow, returned to the United States after his release from Russia after conversations with the Trump administration.

He sentenced a 14-year judgment after his arrest in August 2021 at a Russian airport for possession of drugs, as his family said was medically ordained marijuana.

“Marc Fogel is back !!! Promises that are given, promises held !!!” The White House wrote on X.
