Report: Russia ‘Ready To Discuss’ Prisoner Swap For Brittney Griner

by

The Russian government says it’s ‘ready to discuss’ a prisoner swap for Brittney Griner.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Vladimir Putin and President Biden had established a ‘special channel’ to work out a possible deal. On Thursday, Griner was sentenced to nine years in prison on drug smuggling charges – a sentence Biden called “unacceptable”. It’s been reported that the U.S. is offering notorious arms dealer Victor Bout in exchange for Griner and former Marine Paul Whelan. We are praying for the best and hope a deal can be worked out soon.
