Trevor Reed, a US citizen who has been detained in Russia since 2019, has been released in a prisoner swap, according to a Russian official
The release ends a nearly three-year ordeal for Reed, who was sentenced to nine years in prison in July 2020 for endangering the"life and health" of Russian police officers in an altercation. Reed and his family have denied the charges against him.Reed's release will not impact the US approach to the war in Ukraine, senior administration officials said.
US Drug Enforcement Agency agents ostensibly obtained evidence Yaroshenko had criminal intent to transport a large batch of cocaine, according to TASS. He had been serving his sentence at the Federal Correctional Institution in Danbury, Connecticut. The official did not provide details about how or why Yaroshenko was chosen for the swap, but noted that he had served the majority of his US sentence and is now in Russian custody."This is a tough call for a President.
