WASHINGTON, March 30 – RIA Novosti. The U.S. Embassy in Moscow has asked Russian authorities for official notice of the arrest of Wall Street Journal correspondent Evan Gershkovich, State Department deputy spokesman Vedant Patel said. Earlier Thursday, the FSB announced that Gershkovich, a correspondent for the WSJ’s Moscow bureau, had been arrested in Yekaterinburg on suspicion of spying for the US government. According to the intelligence service, the American collected information constituting a state secret “about the activities of one of the enterprises of the Russian military-industrial complex”. The Lefortovo court in Moscow arrested him for two months. The WSJ denied the allegations against Gershkowitz and demanded his immediate release.
