Who is Paul Whelan?

Trump Was ‘Not Particularly Interested’ In Freeing Paul Whelan: Ex-WH Official


"He was not particularly interested in Paul’s case in the way that one would have thought he would be," Fiona Hill said after Trump criticized the prisoner swap.

Former President Donald Trump was “not particularly interested” in freeing former Marine Paul Whelan from a Russian prison while he was in office, a former White House national security official said Sunday following incendiary complaints by Trump that more hasn’t been done for Whelan.

“I also have to say here that President Trump wasn’t especially interested in engaging in that swap for also Paul Whelan,” Fiona Hill, a former National Security Council Russia specialist, said in an interview with CBS News’ “Face the Nation.” “He was not particularly interested in Paul’s case in the way that one would have thought he would be.”

Hill said that a prisoner swap was raised several times by Russian officials who “had every intent” on trading Americans wrongfully detained overseas for individuals in U.S. custody.

Why should Americans be particularly concerned about Paul Whelan? He has a criminal history, dishonorably discharged from Marines, was born in Canada, and has citizenship in a least four countries. I don't get it.

Disagree. Political points? Probably. Weak? No.
It is weak, when our president agrees to such a lopsided deal. Because the entire world saw this weak trade, a lot more Americans are in danger of being snatched and tossed into a foreign prison. These people think they can pressure the US president to make a lopsided deal in their favor. Obama did it, Biden did it.

Why would Trump have been, considering freeing Whelan? He was a disgraced Marine. Putin only offered lopsided trades, which Trump was correct to refuse. Biden traded one freaking entertainer for the merchant of death.
