The men said they were grateful for the efforts to free them, especially those of former CIA Director James Woolsey, now a private lawyer. But they also feel betrayed by the U.S. government, which they say promised asylum.

Don't know. But my best guess is that it was some form of reciprocation for help during the war--which doesn't mean that they couldn't be double agents, of course.

Life's sure getting messy.

I notice he doesn't say when he entered the country, so he could well be part of your group of resettled RG.
