Three American citizens detained in China have been released after several years.
U.S Correspondent Richard Arnold told Mike Hosking the prisoner swap comes after 'many months' of negotiations from the Biden administration to bring the prisoners home to their families.
One prisoner, Mark Swidan, spent 12 years detained on drug related charges and was sentenced to death.
Swidan, alongside a fellow prisoner, was declared wrongfully declared.
In exchange three detained Chinese nationals will return to China.
