MOSCOW, March 30 – RIA Novosti. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova joked about White House spokesperson John Kirby’s call for Americans to leave Russia, suggesting they were talking about people involved in espionage. “Seems to me that John forgot to add ‘espionage’ before the word ‘Americans’. Probably it was said between the lines,” Zakharova wrote on her Telegram channel, commenting on the news that Kirby repeated the appeal by the US State Department to refuse to travel to Russia. Earlier, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, amid the arrest of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, called on US citizens who remained in Russia to “immediately leave” the country. 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”. Press secretary to the President of the Russian Federation, Dmitry Peskov, said Gershkovich was caught in the act. The WSJ denied the allegations against Gershkowitz and demanded his immediate release. In turn, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, said that Gershkovich’s activities in Yekaterinburg “have nothing to do with journalism.”
