  2. WSJ reporter Evan Gershkovich, falsely accused of espionage and held in Moscow since March 2023, is indicted in Russia.

    The "espionage" charges against Evan are a sham, and Russia knows it.

    Putin should drop these charges now!

  3. Trump is the kind of asshole who lets innocent Americans rot in Russian prisons when he's President because he doesn't give a shit... and when he's a candidate because he thinks he can gain a political advantage. #FreeEvan #IStandWithEvan unprecedented.ghost.io/archive

  9. We saved a seat for Evan Gershkovich at dinner tonight. Evan is spending this holiday season locked up in Russia, for the "crime" of doing his job: Reporting the news.

  11. Today marks 250 days since Evan Gershkovich was detained by officers from Russia’s Federal Security Service during a reporting trip in the city of Yekaterinburg on March 29. He is not a spy, he simply doing his job.

    This is an injustice. It's time to bring him home. #FreeEvan #IStandWithEvan

  12. “Evan has now been unjustly imprisoned for nearly 250 days, and every day is a day too long,” the The Wall Street Journal said in a statement. “The accusations against him are categorically false and his continued imprisonment is a brazen and outrageous attack on a free press, which is critical for a free society.”

  13. Today is my colleague Evan Gershkovich's 32 birthday. He is unjustly spending it in a Russian prison cell simply because he was doing his job as a journalist and seeking to bring truth about the Russia-Ukraine conflict to the world.

    This is unacceptable—30 weeks of detention for Evan is 30 weeks too long.

  14. This morning I thought about how my colleague Evan has been detained in solitary in Russia, for nothing -- as a geopolitical pawn, it seems -- and I teared up.

    It absolutely kills me.

    He represents the best of us -- inquisitive, smart, empathetic -- and they grabbed him on made-up charges. (They accused him of spying, basically.)

    It's so heartbreaking.

    I don't pray but if I did, it would be for Evan to come home as soon as possible.

  16. At #HRC54 we delivered a statement on behalf of Dow Jones, The Wall Street Journal lawyers, calling on states to condemn Russia and help bring #EvanGershkovich home.
    It’s been nearly 6 months since Evan was arbitrarily detained on baseless accusations.
    Evan’s wrongful detention violates his human rights. It’s an affront to the free press and is designed to stop journalists from exercising their right to free expression.
