CNN —Russian President Vladimir Putin has suggested “an agreement can be reached” with the United States to release detained American journalist Evan Gershkovich, as he brought up the conviction of a “patriotic” Russian hitman in Germany.
Gershkovich, a Wall Street Journal reporter, was arrested last March while on a reporting trip in the country.
When Putin said Gershkovich was working with US special services, Carlson did push the Russian president, saying: “This guy is obviously not a spy, he’s a kid.
In fact, journalists have repeatedly been requesting interviews with Putin, but the Russian President had declined to grant access.
The Russian President suggested that the path to ending the war in Ukraine was through direct negotiations between Washington and Moscow.
