“Family and friends (Kurpasi. -

) ... accused the Biden administration of inaction, saying that any hope of finding him alive depends on negotiations between Washington and Moscow,” the material says.
Kurpasi's wife said that Washington is not investing any "resources" in order to find the missing infantryman.
According to friends of Kurpasi, there is a "lack of promptness" in the actions of the authorities.
It is noted that US President Joe Biden did not come into contact with the family of the missing.
The material of the publication cites a document provided by the military group, which says that on the day of the disappearance of Kurpasi, together with the British mercenary Andrew Hill, he went on reconnaissance.
At the same time, it later became known that Hill was taken prisoner by the Russian Armed Forces.
Earlier, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said that the United States had received a request to recognize American mercenaries in Ukraine as combatants.
On June 29, the American mercenary Alexander Dryuke, who is in captivity on the territory of the Donetsk People's Republic, said that he regretted his arrival in Ukraine to participate in hostilities.
