US Navy veteran’s release ‘non-negotiable’ for Taliban’s legitimacy: Biden

US President Joe Biden on Sunday called the Taliban to release US Navy Veteran Mark Frerichs, who had been captured for two years. Biden said in Frerich’s statement could not be negotiated before the Taliban could expect consideration of aspiration for legitimacy.

Frerichs, Illinois native, helped with construction projects in Afghanistan when he was held captive. Biden convinced all Americans who were held hostage and were wrongly detained abroad that his government would continue to work firmly until every American was detained with their desire to return home.

“A civil engineer, he spent a decade of helping Afghans. He did not make a mistake,” Biden said in a statement.

The statement added, “Threatening the safety of Americans or innocent civilians is always unacceptable, and taking hostage is a certain acidity and cowardice. The Taliban must immediately release the sign before expecting consideration of aspiration for legitimacy. This cannot be negotiated.”

The Ned Department of Tate Department spokesman said in a statement that the US had collected the Frerichs case in every meeting with the Taliban.

“[W] E is clear that the legitimacy sought for Taliban is not possible to consider while they hold hostage US citizens. The release is one of our core priorities, cannot be negotiated. We will continue to send clear messages to Taliban leadership: Immediately and Safe Release mark and deny the practice of hostage, “said price.
