A lawyer for The Wall Street Journal says Russia must face consequences for its detention of Evan Gershkovich, one of the newspaper's reporters.
FILE - Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich stands in a glass cage in a courtroom at the Moscow City Court, in Moscow, Russia, on Dec. 14, 2023. A lawyer for The Wall Street Journal said Thursday, March 21, 2024, that Russia must face consequences for its detention of Gershkovich, one of the newspaper's reporters. Gershkovich was arrested on March 29, 2023, on espionage charges, which he and the newspaper deny.
More recently, allies of the late Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny have said that talks with Russian and Western officials about aConti, the newspaper's lawyer, did not discuss those negotiations during the Thursday appearance but said, “We follow every development that happens in Russia. They all have an impact.”
“If you think about what are the consequences of what's happened so far — a great reporter is sitting in prison, a number of Western journalists have pulled out of Russia, it's much harder to cover the story from the ground — and, eventually, if you believe the playbook on these things, Russia will get a bad guy back,” Conti said.
Also at the event was Gershkovich's sister, Danielle, who said she regularly communicates with her brothers through letters.
