French citizen, Olivier Grondeau who was held hostage in #Iran for 887 days has been freed and is now back home. Sadly, Cecile Kohler and Jacques Paris were left behind. I’m so happy for Olivier and his family and hope Cecile and Jacques are freed soon too.

I’m sorry to see President-Elect Trump replace Ambassador Roger Carstens as US Special Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs. He did amazing work and helped save many lives. His work inspired the hostage community in other countries to call on their governments to implement similar SPEHA roles.
