I wish Americans would stop going to Russia (or at least stop going to Russia and attracting attention) so that the USA can stop trading prisoners for them. That way Viktor Bout would still be locked up, and who knows what wonderful human being will go free in exchange for this guy.
(And I do have sympathy for Brittney Griner but maybe Russia would stop doing this sort of thing if the USA didn’t cooperate.)
Gershkovich wasn’t on vacation or anything. He was working on an assignment for the WSJ
Right but maybe the WSJ should have hired a Russian (or 3rd nationality) journalist for the role.
It’s not different on how things were in Cuba few years ago where it wasn’t possible to send US citizens there
I don’t see how it would’ve ended differently. Other than maybe the US govt wouldn’t care
I’m generally bewildered outage could still grow over anything happening in Russia.
I have never seen or known a country full of more pussies… Than russian it’s funny watch an entire population be bullied around by one sensitive pen pusher who lies to em.
It’s almost comical…
