The espionage trial of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich began behind closed doors in Yekaterinburg, Russia, on Wednesday, 15 months after his arrest. Gershkovich, who has been imprisoned for 455 days since March 29, 2023, is accused of gathering secret information on the orders of the CIA, charges he, his employer, and the U.S. government vehemently deny. The trial, which is being held in secret, has been widely condemned as a sham by the U.S. government, including the White House, and various media organizations. If convicted, Gershkovich faces up to 20 years in prison. This marks the first time since the Cold War that an American journalist has been put on trial in Russia for espionage. The case is viewed as a bogus attempt by Russian President Vladimir Putin to obtain leverage over the West.
