Statement from President Joe Biden on the Release of Paul Rusesabagina

I welcome today’s release of Paul Rusesabagina by the Government of Rwanda.  Paul’s family is eager to welcome him back to the United States, and I share their joy at today’s good news.
 
I thank the Rwandan Government for making this reunion possible, and I also thank the Government of Qatar for facilitating Paul’s release and return to the United States.  I add my gratitude to those across the U.S. Government who have worked with the Government of Rwanda to achieve today’s happy outcome.
