The 52 American hostages, originally detained on November 4, 1979, were released to the United States on January 20, 1981. The release was announced just moments after the newly elected President, Ronald Reagan, took his official oath of office. It is not known whether the Iranians intentionally delayed the negotiations until Carter left office.
