Paul Whelan's twin brother, David, joined Scripps News to discuss the challenges and frustrations associated with Paul's ongoing Russia incarceration.
Whelan was sentenced in 2020 to 16 years in prison on spying charges. They are charges that both Whelan and the U.S. government deny.
On Wednesday, in a 422-0 unanimous vote, the House of Representatives passed a resolutioncalling on Russia to release Whelan and Wall Street Journal reporterEvan Gershkovich, with the hopes of spurring a movement to return them home to the United States. "I think that the resolution is important because it shows - and especially with the consistency that being the third Congress that has looked at this resolution and voted on it - that the U.S. government is not going to back down.
Whelan’s case has gotten more attention since the release of WNBA star Britteny Griner earlier this year and the detention of Gershkovich.
