The Kremlin has expressed openness to a potential prisoner swap that could involve Evan Gershkovich.
Gershkovich, a WSJ reporter, was detained by Russian officials in March on suspicion of espionage.
The Journal and the US government have vehemently denied the allegations against Gershkovich.
Russia's internal security service at the time said that it had detained Gershkovich, accusing him of "espionage in the interests of the American government."
The US has told the Kremlin that Gershkovich is not a spy and is not a government official.
