Russian Alexei Burkov has been in an Israeli prison for almost four years. He was arrested at the request of the United States in December 2015. The Israeli Supreme Court approved his extradition to the United States, but the decision has not yet been signed by the country's justice minister. All this time, extradition of Burkov is also being sought by the Russian side. In a conversation with RT, the man spoke about the conditions of detention, as well as the charges against him. Meanwhile, the relatives of the Russian sent a request to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation to begin negotiations on the possible exchange of Burkov for Israeli citizen Naamu Issahar, detained at the Moscow airport in September 2019.
