In a heartfelt plea, American citizen Paul Whelan, who is currently imprisoned in Russia, is calling on President Biden to use every available resource to secure his release. As he reflects on the grim milestone of five years in detention, Whelan voices his frustrations and appeals to the President to act urgently, emphasizing that time is of the essence.
Whelan, wrongfully detained in Russia, expressed his disbelief that he is still behind bars and emphasized his readiness to return home. Speaking in an interview last week, he conveyed his deep frustration and exasperation at the situation. Believing it to be surreal that his release has not yet been secured, Whelan hoped that this milestone would have marked his freedom.
