Video Summary
Russia has released Vladimir Kara-Murza, a prominent opposition leader and critic of President Vladimir Putin, as part of a prisoner swap with the US and Germany. Kara-Murza, a 42-year-old journalist and dissident, was imprisoned in 2022 on treason charges and had been sentenced to 25 years in prison. He was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for commentary for his columns written from his prison cell, which warned of the consequences of dissent in Putin’s Russia. In a phone call with his daughter, Kara-Murza expressed gratitude to the US and Germany for securing his release and emphasized the importance of saving human lives. The prisoner swap also included the release of eight individuals from Russia, including suspected spies and criminals, who had been held in Western countries.
