Donald Trump has welcomed home American schoolteacher Marc Fogel after he was released from prison in Russia, with the US president saying Vladimir Putin had got "not much" in return.

Trump said that another detainee would be freed on Wednesday without giving their name.

Mr Fogel, a 63-year-old former diplomat, landed at Joint Base Andrews just outside Washington DC late on Tuesday evening, before travelling to the White House.

His release was negotiated as part of an exchange with Russia, US National Security Advisor Mike Waltz said earlier. Russia did not comment on the release immediately.

«He is not a diplomat, but he taught at a Anglo-American School of Moscow. Teaching history to the children of diplomats from United States, Great Britain, and Canada. The school he worked at has a special status where its teachers often enjoyed diplomatic privileges due to their association with the embassies. And he knowingly brought contraband into a foreign country, falsely assumed he actually has diplomat immunity., when they picked him up at the airport, going through custom into Russia. Regardless, it is nice to have him back home.»
