U.S. Ambassador to Russia Lynn Tracy visited Wall Street Journal correspondent Evan Gershkovich in prison for the first time today, finding him in good spirits. Tracy stated, "This is the first time we have been granted consular access to Evan since his wrongful detention over two weeks ago. His morale is good, and he is calm. We reiterate our call for Evan's immediate release." The Russian Federal Security Service has accused Gershkovich of gathering secret information about a defense company considered state secrets.
