        Under intl law, Paul Whelan is required to have a lawyer that represents him, not Russia. @JonHuntsman @SecPompeo should insist on that. Talking about a spy swap at this juncture is illogical - at this juncture we have no indication that Whelan was a part of / affiliated with

        The fact that his lawyer is repeating any “spy swap” language is at best irresponsible. It just parrots the Russian narrative that Whelan violated the espionage act.

        So it’s almost like his lawyer is working with Russia. So maybe this was schemed to get Butina

        Considering the attorney’s name is Vladimir A. Zherebenkov I would say, yes, he’s Russian. Did anyone read the article?

        I am really thinking there is a whole lot more to this story. Something smells funny here. Maybe he set himself up so there can be a prisoner exchange

        That's still damaging to the criminal cases she would be testify for. Her video taped testimony to the Grand jury wouldn't be admissible because the defendant wouldn't be able to cross examine the witness.

        Maria Butina. That lawyer has Putin’s best interests at heart, not Whelan’s. We might give Butina back after we have taken every last drop of actionable intelligence from her. Will take a long time.
