US Swaps Prisoner With Russia in Surprise Sign of Cooperation
FORMER US Marine Trevor Reed has been exchanged for Russian pilot Konstantin Yaroshenko in a prison swap.
The exchange took place in Turkey on Wednesday, reports say.
Reed was arrested in Moscow in 2019 and accused of intentionally endangering the lives of government officials in the line of duty.
Russian cops said Reed got drunk and allegedly grabbed the arm of an officer as he was being taken to a station – claims that were dismissed by US officials as “preposterous”.
