NY Poster: The State Department admitted Thursday that the US would not hand
over $400 million in cash to Iran until it released four American
hostages — two weeks after President Obama insisted the payment was not a
“ransom.”
State Department spokesman John Kirby was asked at Thursday’s press
briefing: “In basic English, you’re saying you wouldn’t give them $400
million in cash until the prisoners were released, correct?”
“That’s correct,” Kirby replied.
