President Donald Trump highlighted what he described as a major achievement in securing the release of American hostages during a recent statement.

“We’ve got 67 hostages back and we don’t pay any money,” Trump said, contrasting his approach with that of former President Joe Biden. Trump criticized Biden’s handling of hostage negotiations, claiming, “Biden would pay $6 billion for 5 hostages and they’d get more than we would.”

Trump also said he directly addressed Hamas regarding current hostage situations, making his position clear: “We want our hostages back. We want those hostages back.”

The comments underline Trump’s ongoing message of toughness in international negotiations and his insistence on achieving results without financial concessions. His remarks come as tensions in the Middle East remain high, with hostage diplomacy continuing to draw global attention.
