卡特辅助被北韩关押的美国人重获自在Carter Wins Freedom for US Man Imprisoned in North Korea

美国前总统卡特出访平壤，使戈梅斯这位美国国民获释。卡特的助手说，飞机将在美国东部时光礼拜五下战书2点钟的时候到达波士顿。

A chartered flight carrying Aijalon Mahli Gomes is due shortly in Boston, where Gomes' mother and family members are waiting to welcome him home after eight months in a North Korean prison.

Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter secured the American citizen's release during his mission to Pyongyang. His aides said the flight would land early Friday afternoon (2 pm EDT).

The U.S. State Department said it welcomed the release, stressing that this was the sole purpose of Mr. Carter's private mission. There has been widespread media speculation that Mr. Carter also would hold political talks with the North Koreans. 

一架载有戈梅斯的包机预计未几将抵达波士顿，他的妈妈和家人正在那里等候，欢迎他回家。戈梅斯在北韩一所监狱里被关押了八个月。

美国国务院对戈梅斯的获释表现欢送，同时强调，戈梅斯的获释是卡特这次私家拜访的独一目标。媒体曾广泛猜想，卡特会跟北韩举办政治谈判。

Television footage showed Mr. Carter embracing the smiling Gomes on the runway at Pyongyang's airport before they boarded the private jet.
