After a public plea for support over the weekend, President Joe Biden wasted no time, saying on Monday he would meet with them 'today.'
The parents of Austin Tice, an American journalist and Marine Corps veteran abducted in Syria, have already been waiting almost a decade for their son to return home. After a public plea for support over the weekend, President Joe Biden wasted no time, saying on Monday he would meet with them"today."
The heightened attention to Tice's case comes after the head of the White House Correspondents' Association paid tribute to him during the group's annual dinner on Saturday, asking his mother to stand and be acknowledged as the president looked on. That high-profile moment at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner took place just days after Trevor Reed, an American and former Marine held captive in Russia for nearly two years, was freed as part of an international prisoner exchange --a deal that fell into place weeks after Reed's parents had a White House meeting with the president of their own.
