Title: Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe

Surprised that no body has flagged up that she has been given her passport back by the Iranians. Could this mean an end to her being held as a hostage?

this might have a barring on her release,  A £400m debt relating to a cancelled order for 1,500 Chieftain tanks dating back to the 1970s had been linked to the continued detention of Mrs Zaghari-Ratcliffe and other UK-Iranian dual nationals held in the country - although the government has said the two issues should not be linked.

Ms Truss said the debt was "legitimate" and that the government was "looking for ways to pay" it.

It sure is.
I think she has definitely made a difference if she had anything to do with that debt.

Good luck to her rebuilding her life. It is shocking how she has been treated.

What a brave and dignified guy her husband has been throughout all of this.

Shocking waste of six years of her life and missing her young daughters formative years.

Reminds me a little of Terry Waite and his 4 years in captivity,

I think she did a couple of years more than she would have done because of the incompetent buffoon who now parades as the PM.

I just hope everything goes well for her. I can’t imagine the difficulties the family will have rebuilding their lives
Also let’s not forget Anoosheh Ashoori

I suspect the biggest difficulty will be in building a strong relationship with her daughter.  Difficulty for both of them I would imagine.
