Russia is trying to use American concerns about "Wall Street Journal" correspondent Evan Gershkovich, detained in Moscow on espionage charges, to influence the newspaper's coverage. This is shown by a report of the state news agency Ria

If the New York newspaper continues an "activity not related to journalism" by publishing "disinformation" about Russia, "it will mean that the editorial board is not interested in Gershkovich's fate at all," Ria quoted an unnamed "informed source in Moscow" as saying Friday evening.

In the past few days, the newspaper had carried "a number of articles with false allegations concerning Russia," the "interlocutor" had also said. Examples were missing.

The choice of words is reminiscent of the language used by Russian power representatives in cases where there is a deviation from representations of the Moscow Defense Ministry on the Ukrainian war. Thus, the unofficial but hardly disguised threat to harm Gershkovich is aimed at the entire "Wall Street Journal" coverage of the war.
