LONDON (AP) — British media say a U.S. plane carrying four Russians traded in the largest spy swap since the Cold War has landed at a U.K. military base.
The BBC and Sky News reported that the plane landed at RAF Brize Norton air base in Oxfordshire in southern England. It was not immediately clear what the plane’s next destination would be — if any.
Only a few hours earlier, the U.S. and Russia exchanged 10 spies arrested in the U.S. for four convicted in Russia in a tightly choreographed diplomatic dance Friday at Vienna’s airport.
