U.S. soldier detained in Russia, officials say
« on: May 06, 2024, 03:05:25 pm »
A U.S. soldier was detained in Russia over the weekend, according to three U.S. officials.

He had been stationed in Korea and traveled to Russia on his own and not on official business.

The soldier is accused of stealing from a woman.

The U.S. Army did not immediately return a request for comment.

US soldier arrested in Russia on accused of theft

A US Army soldier stationed in South Korea has been detained in Russia, the US military says.

The unnamed sergeant is accused of stealing from a woman, reports the BBC's US partner CBS.

The soldier was not on official travel when he was held on 2 May in the city of Vladivostock, in Russia's far east.

US National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told reporters the US is "aware of this case and other matters related to Russia".

At the White House briefing on Monday, Mr Kirby said he could not provide more details.

According to a statement from the US Army, the soldier is facing charges of criminal misconduct.

"The Army notified his family and the US Department of State is providing appropriate consular support to the Soldier in Russia," it said.

Seems pretty dumb for any US service member to visit Russia. Will be another pawn in a larger conflict.

There may be context as to why he was there, but visiting Russia, generally, and Vladivostok, especially, very much seems like, "What were you thinking?!" grade.

He isn't a black lesbian basketball player,  so Biden has no interest in his wellbeing.
