U.S. & Venezuela Conduct Prisoner Exchange
------------------------------------------

Venezuela has released seven U.S. citizens, including five oil
executives, as part of a prisoner swap that saw the United States
release two relatives of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro who had been
jailed on drug charges. It was the largest prisoner swap since Joe Biden
took office.
