The first American journalist in Russia to be detained on such charges since 1968 is Evan, a correspondent for the Wall Street Journal. The newspaper has denied the accusations against him and demanded that he be released without delay.

[@xonious9031]

Okay when did the Wall Street Journal have the exact same response if he were guilty as if he were innocent? I mean if he were really spying one at the Wall Street Journal makes the exact same statement?

Just lock him up without a court order. Russia don't need people like him. Russia is great.

I’d love to go to Russia and a lot of other Central European countries to see the architecture and marvel at history... but I’m not going to go... same with Iran.... not going to go there.... similarly a couple of years ago, I was offered a job in eastern Syria. Didn’t take it.... not going there... these folk that do, must be aware of the risks that stop me, but choose to ignore them.... and this is what can happen, and again, why I won’t be going there. Don’t want to be arrested in Russia... don’t go.... there are a lot safer places to visit or work that carry less risk

He brought it upon himself against US president advice. His arrest is his personal fault, nobody cares about idiоts like that. He's made his choice, now he'll pay the price. US has zero jurisdiction in enemy countries.

Paul Whelan was a common criminal with a bad conduct discharge then, and he is still a common criminal with a bad conduct discharge now. You are *_totally_* without knowledge of what is, or what is not, being done to gain his release. This person, whom you do not know, has U.S., British, Irish, and Canadian citizenship. So, in addition to the United States Department of State, he has three other state departments keeping an eye on his situation. The Russians *_dictated_* the Griner release. *WHELAN'S **_OWN BROTHER_** SAID THE GRINER DEAL WAS THE RIGHT THING TO DO!*
