Description
US ambassador to Russia Lynne Tracy calls a Russian court's verdict to extend reporter Evan Gershkovish's pre-trial detention "particularly painful, as this week marks the one year anniversary since Evan was arrested." March 29 marks one year since Gershkovich's surprise arrest by FSB counterintelligence agents in the Urals city of Yekaterinburg. Gershkovich, his employers and the White House all vehemently reject the charge of espionage, which they say was fabricated. SOUNDBITES
