The Taliban has released US Navy veteran Mark Frerichs in exchange for an Afghan tribal leader.
Frerichs was abducted in February 2020 while Haji Bashar Noorzai was serving a life sentence for smuggling heroin.

The Taliban says this is a new era of relations with Washington.
But will it change anything?
And are diplomatic ties between Taliban and the US even possible?
