She is back in our country! Welcome back Brittney Griner

 American basketball star Britney Griner, who the US claimed had been wrongfully detained in Russia over alleged drug offenses, was released on Thursday and was heading back to America via the UAE, President Joe Biden said.


Mr Biden thanked his administration and the UAE, which he said facilitated Griner’s release. He said she landed in the country from Russia.

“Welcome home Brittney,” Mr Biden said at the White House. “She’s relieved to finally be heading home.”

I’m so glad she’s back in our country, I think it’s amazing that the Biden govt and UAE govt take care of this. I just can’t imagine what she went through.
