MOSCOW, Feb 13 (Reuters) - The United States has told its citizens to leave Russia immediately due to the war in Ukraine and the risk of arbitrary arrest or harassment by Russian law enforcement agencies.
"U.S. citizens residing or travelling in Russia should depart immediately," the U.S. embassy in Moscow said. "Exercise increased caution due to the risk of wrongful detentions."
"Do not travel to Russia," it added.
"Russian security services have arrested U.S. citizens on spurious charges, singled out U.S. citizens in Russia for detention and harassment, denied them fair and transparent treatment, and convicted them in secret trials or without presenting credible evidence," the embassy said.
"Russian authorities arbitrarily enforce local laws against U.S. citizen religious workers and have opened questionable criminal investigations against U.S. citizens engaged in religious activity."

The reporter being arrested is news. This is a supporting detail to that news item (which you got right).
By itself it is not worthy of another topic post in News/Activism.

The White House needs to be telling “Americans” to leave any country south of the border immediately. That’s where all of the weaponized illegal alien invaders are seeking “asylum” from. It must be hell down there and azho so-called Americans are spending millions of dollars down there on vacations in order to keep all the fascist politicians down there rich and in place.
