Spokesman: Iran-US prisoner swap must not be politicized

Tehran, IRNA – Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Nasser Kanaani while referring to astonishing remarks by a US official on prisoner exchange between the two countries said Iran believes this quite humanitarian issue must not be politicized.

Speaking in reaction to the astonishing US foreign ministry official in reaction to the Minister of Foreign Affairs Hossein Amirabdollahian's remarks on Iran-US agreement on prisoner exchange, Kanaani said, "As of March, 2022, through a middleman a written agreement on prisoner exchange between Iran and America was finalized."

"The official representative introduced by the Americans, too, has signed that agreement, but the US administration has so far on different pretexts prevented the implementation of that bilateral agreement," added the Islamic Republic of Iran Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman.

He added that furthermore, during the course of the past few weeks indirect messages have been exchanged between Tehran and Washington for updating that agreement.
