00:00Two Swedish citizens released in a prisoner swap with Iran have been reunited with their
00:05families in Stockholm.
00:07EU diplomat Johan Floderes and Saeed Azizi were released by Iran in an exchange on Saturday.
00:14This is a long time of suffering that is now over for Johan and Saeed, of course, but also
00:22I think almost as much for those who have waited for them here at home.
00:26The family of Johan Floderes, who worked for the European External Action Service, said
00:31he was arrested at Tehran airport in 2022 while returning from a holiday with friends.
00:37Saeed Azizi had been sentenced to five years in prison on charges of collusion against
00:42national security.
00:47They were exchanged for Hamid Noori, who was sentenced to life in prison for his role in
00:52mass executions in Iran in 1988.
