ai generated text
The US government has designated Mark Swidan, Kai Li, and John Leung as wrongfully detained. Swidan was facing a death sentence on drug charges, while Li and Leung were imprisoned on espionage charges. The Biden administration raised the cases with China in multiple meetings over the last several years.
Soon they will return and be reunited with their families for the first time in many years.
Thanks to this administration's efforts and diplomacy with the PRC, all of the wrongfully detained Americans in the PRC are home.
