The lawyers representing Evan Gershkovich, the Wall Street Journal reporter and U.S. citizen who was arrested by the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) in late March and charged with espionage, are hoping he will be released in a prisoner swap, Meduza has learned from a source familiar with the proceedings.
