Trump to greet Marc Fogel on his return from Russia after being freed from prison
The White House said President Donald Trump will welcome formerly detained American Marc Fogel at 10 pm tonight when he returns from Russia.

'If you want to come over, you can say hello,' Trump told reporters.

Asked if the U.S. side gave anything in return him, Trump replied: 'Not much.'

He added: 'No, they were very nice. We were treated very nicely by Russia. Actually, I hope that's the beginning of a relationship where we can end that war, and millions of people can stop being killed.'

Trump bars AP from Oval Office after news outlet won't use 'Gulf of America'
President Donald Trump and his staff kept an Associated Press reporter out of an Oval Office event on Tuesday because the news organization didn’t use ‘Gulf of America’ in its coverage.

‘Today we were informed by the White House that if AP did not align its editorial standards with President Donald Trump’s executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America, AP would be barred from accessing an event in the Oval Office. This afternoon AP’s reporter was blocked from attending an executive order signing,’ AP’s executive editor Julie Pace said in a statement.

News organizations around the world subscribe to the AP’s wire coverage of global events, including the White House.

Pace called the White House decision 'alarming,' a violation of the First Amendment and impeding the public's access to independent news.

Trump signed an executive order on Sunday renaming the Gulf of Mexico 'The Gulf of America.' The AP was banned from covering his Oval Office event with Elon Musk.

In its AP Stylebook, which is used by many news organizations in America, the AP outlines its use of the name: ‘The Gulf of Mexico has carried that name for more than 400 years. The Associated Press will refer to it by its original name while acknowledging the new name Trump has chosen. As a global news agency that disseminates news around the world, the AP must ensure that place names and geography are easily recognizable to all audiences.’

It points out ‘the body of water has shared borders between the U.S. and Mexico. Trump’s order only carries authority within the United States. Mexico, as well as other countries and international bodies, do not have to recognize the name change.’
