NEW: "The United States, out of respect for President Trump, was not required to give anything in return." President Trump says Russia just released an American who was detained for more than four years, and the United States didn't have to give up anything in return. Stephen Hubbard is now en route home after Trump says he personally asked Russian President Vladimir Putin to release him during a phone call last week. Trump says no prisoner swap was necessary and criticizes the Biden administration for failing to secure Hubbard's release sooner.
