Russian secret service arrests American on suspicion of treason. US citizens in Russia are repeatedly at risk of being targeted by the secret service.
In the past, Kremlin has freed imprisoned Russian criminals in the US through an exchange with Americans convicted in Moscow. The Wall Street Journal had denied all allegations against it and called for the release of its correspondent. The FSB did not present any evidence to support the allegations. It said the money was used to purchase medical supplies, equipment and ammunition. The investigation was ongoing.
