Vinnik's defense will file a new appeal against his arrest

“We are again filing an appeal regarding his detention,” she said.

Earlier, the Paris Court of Cassation did not satisfy the complaint against Vinnik's arrest in France on the basis of a European arrest warrant issued by Paris.

Russian citizen Alexander Vinnik was arrested in Greece in 2017 at the request of the United States, where he is accused of creating a cryptocurrency exchange without a license from the American authorities, through which, according to Washington, billions of dollars were laundered.

Since January 23, Vinnik has been in France, where he was extradited from Greece.
