Former President Donald Trump said Sunday he had previously rejected an attempt by Russia to trade “Merchant of Death” arms dealer Viktor Bout for former US Marine Paul Whelan.




Bout, who was convicted in 2011 of conspiracy to kill Americans by supplying a Colombian terrorist group with weapons, was freed last week in exchange for the return of WNBA star Brittney Griner.

Griner had been sentenced to nine years in a Russian forced labor camp after authorities found vape canisters with cannabis oil in her suitcase when she touched down in Moscow back in February.



US officials have said they tried to secure the release of both Whelan and Griner, but Russia refused to budge — insisting on the one-for-one swap of Griner for Bout.

Even though he shot down the Whelan-Bout swap during his time in the White House, Trump insisted Sunday he still “would have gotten Paul out.”
