U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Wednesday he has “no doubt” that Russia has wrongfully detained an American reporter for The Wall Street Journal, Evan Gershkovich, who was arrested last week on spying allegations. Blinken's comments at NATO headquarters in Brussels urged his Russian counterpart, Sergey Lavrov, to immediately release Gershkovich as well as another imprisoned American, Paul Whelan, who had already been determined to have been wrongfully detained.
