Gen. Petraeus on Griner release: Hate to 'reward' Russia for swap, Viktor Bout has 'blood on his hands'
Fox News
Gen. Petraeus told Fox News Digital that although it's an "understandable imperative" for countries to bring citizens home, Viktor Bout who was exchanged with Russia for Brittney Griner is "reprehensible."
During an interview with Fox News Digital at the Aspen Security Forum in Washington, D.C., Petraeus said it is an "understandable imperative" for countries to engage in prisoner swaps in order to safely deliver their citizens home. However, he also recognized that Bout's bloody history complicates the matter, calling him a "very reprehensible individual." Kelly Laco is a politics editor for Fox News Digital.
"I don't think that this is at all unreasonable. You know, every country wants to get back its citizens. Ukraine and Russia are doing this again," explained Petraeus.
