Lawfare Daily: A Giant and Unexpected Prisoner Swap
The Lawfare Podcast - Un pódcast de The Lawfare Institute
Categorías:
On Thursday, Russia released 16 prisoners in exchange for eight prisoners held in Western countries, including the United States. The prisoners released by the Putin regime included several Americans, most notably Evan Gershkovich of the Wall Street Journal and two other journalists, and long-time prisoner Paul Whelan. Shane Harris of the Washington Post, who covered the story, and Lawfare's Fellow in Technology Policy and Law Eugenia Lostri, joined Lawfare Editor-in-Chief Benjamin Wittes to discuss the exchange: what the United States got from Russia, what Russia got from Germany and other Western countries, and the personal involvement of President Biden in setting up the trade.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.
