American soldier freed from Taliban in Afghanistan
The only American prisoner being held in Afghanistan was released Saturday, in exchange for five Taliban detainees being held at Guantanamo Bay Detention Center in Cuba. 28-year-old Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who was captured by insurgents in 2009, was turned over to U.S. special forces. For more on this, Adam Entous of the Wall Street Journal joins Hari Sreenivasan from Washington.
