According to him, the State Department is aware of the detention of a US citizen in Russia. It is noted that the department is “working to provide all necessary assistance.”
The State Department also added that there is no higher priority for them than ensuring the safety of American citizens abroad.
Recall that American citizen Yuri Malev had twice published an image of the St. George Ribbon on his account, accompanied by an offensive inscription. He was arrested and has already partially admitted his guilt. The Smolninsky District Court accepted the investigation’s request to select a preventive measure in the form of detention.
