Russian-American Jailed for Treason in Russia
A Russian-American woman has been sentenced to 12 years in a Russian prison on charges of treason, according to U.S. Senator Marco Rubio.
The woman was reportedly apprehended while attempting to leave Russia for the United States. Details about the case remain limited, but the sentencing underscores rising tensions and the increasing risks faced by dual nationals in the region. Rubio has publicly condemned the sentencing and called for her immediate release. The U.S. State Department has yet to issue an official response.
