Venezuela’s government on Thursday pledged to free a significant number of prisoners in what it described as a gesture to “seek peace.” Officials have not identified or given a number of prisoners being considered for release, leaving rights groups scouring for hints of information and families to watch the hours tick by with no word. US President Donald Trump said the release of people detained for political reasons came at Washington’s request.#Venezuela #releases #political #prisoners #deal #Washington1768157110
