Evan Gershkovich to the USA, here we go! ✈️🌭🪆🚀

🇷🇺 Talented journalist swapped by Russia after talks accelerated. Putin, crucial to the deal.

📰32 year old reporter rejected all other options. Evan wants USA, no doubts.

🇺🇸 Joe Biden, key to convince Putin of the project.

A court in Russia has sentenced Evan Gershkovich, the WSJ reporter arrested last year on absurd espionage charges, to 16 years in high-security prison.

Russia rushed through the trial and didn't bother presenting public evidence. It may be a prelude to an exchange. Free Evan!

Hero-worship moment. With Professor Sir John Curtice, discussing the content of his piece for the Radio 4 Six O’Clock News. I hadn’t dared ask PSJC for a selfie; luckily someone snapped us.

Brilliant piece by the great @GlennBBC. His brain cancer diagnosis and optimism. If you read one thing today…

Evan has been imprisoned for 38 weeks. It’s unfathomable. Let’s get him home.

Journalism is not a crime. We stand with WSJ reporter Evan Gershkovich, who was arrested last week on bogus espionage charges in Russia. Evan worked for three years as a reporter at The Moscow Times – we know he’s a professional journalist. He should be released immediately. 🧵👇

[Max Colchester @MaximColch]

Downing Street calls for @evangershkovich release. “We stand shoulder to shoulder with the United States who are leading on the efforts to get Mr. Gershkovich free,” says a spokesman for @RishiSunak . “We fully support the democratic principles that are in play here.”
