How $50 for Ukraine led to desperate battle to free LA ballerina held in Russia
Amateur ballerina #Ksenia #Karelina, an American and Russian dual citizen who celebrated the new year with a trip to Istanbul with her partner Chris van Heerden, a South African professional boxer, before heading to Russia to visit family, was arrested and detained by Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) on 28 January
in her hometown of Yekaterinburg, about 1,100 miles east of Moscow.
Karelina may be the latest victim in a chess match over detainees between the US and Russia, which dates back more than 15 years when, in 2008, the US Drug Enforcement Administration arrested #Viktor #Bout, a former Soviet military officer and translator, on conspiracy charges. Bout was eventually traded in 2022 for the WNBA champion #Brittney #Griner, who Russian officials had arrested for possessing vaporizer cartridges containing less than a gram of hash oil.
In March last year, Russian officials arrested the Wall Street Journal reporter #Evan #Gershkovich in the same place as Karelina, Yekaterinburg. Gershkovich and the ex-US marine #Paul #Whelan, arrested in 2018, are being held on bogus espionage charges, according to the US government.
In January, Moscow also arrested the English teacher #Robert #Woodland #Romanov, a dual US-Russian citizen, on drug charges.
And now Karelina.
Van Heerden is desperate to raise awareness and money for his partner’s legal defense and return.

I'm proud of my work. I work hard to make each photo I keep, a display of the people's amazingness, their talent, their bright smiles, and even special moments when i can catch those. And I want the world to see how colorful and sparkly roller derby is.
these photos were very much a challenge to balance, since the hour of this game was when the sun was at its brightest behind alot of the jams. these photos are the ones that survived the processing stage.
see you at PRD's next home game on June 17!

Hosts of Radio Komsomolskaya Pravda ambush Russia’s ‘#Merchant of #Death’ Viktor #Bout by asking him whether he is going to fight on the frontlines. No dice! He'd rather be a politician and a #propagandist.
