Earlier, Slovenian publications wrote about a possible “big exchange” amid the news of the spy couple’s release from Russia.
One of the stages of the large-scale exchange of prisoners between the Russian Federation, Belarus, the USA and Germany took place. This was reported by the Russian Telegram channel Mash on Thursday, August 1.
It was reported that Artem and Anna Dultsev were deported to Russia in Kaliningrad. The special aircraft used in the exchange of Viktor Bout did not reach Moscow, but flew to Murmansk.
A Slovenian couple was sentenced to one year and seven months in prison on espionage charges. They spent about the same amount of time in custody. The Dultsevs allegedly posed as Argentine citizens Ludwig Gisch and Maria Rosa Mayer Munoz.
It was also learned about the release of American journalist Evan Gershkovich and former US Marine Paul Whelan as part of a prisoner exchange with the Russian Federation, Bloomberg reports.
There has been no official announcement about the exchange yet.
We reported that Slovenian publications had previously written about a possible “big exchange” amid the news of the release of a spy couple from Russia.
We remind you that the Russian opposition Ilya Yashin was taken “in an unknown direction.” Yashin became the fifth “political prisoner” in the past week released from the colony “in an unknown direction.”
