Unidentified Russian freed in US in exchange
On Wednesday, The Kremlin said a Russian citizen was freed in the U.S. in exchange for Moscow’s release of American Marc Fogel, but refused to identify them until they arrive in Russia. The Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters the unidentified individual would return to Russia “in the coming days,” and when they reach Russia, their name would be revealed. This is unlike past prisoner exchanges between Moscow and Washington, when Russians and Americans were released simultaneously and their identities were revealed right away.
