I sent Evan a letter this week letting him know I’d be saving a seat for him at my Thanksgiving table. A reminder that writing to Evan is a great way to keep his spirits up, especially now that it’s holiday time. You can send him letters here: [email protected]

A Moscow court has again extended the pre-trial detention of our The Wall Street Journal colleague and friend Evan Gershkovich, now until January 30. Evan has been in Russian jail since March on fabricated espionage charges. Dozens of international media orgs stand with Evan. Free him now!

In 250 days of headlines, ā€œEvan Gershkovich Releasedā€ isn’t one of them. Appearing in the print edition of The Wall Street Journal, @NYTimes and @WashingtonPost, a powerful full-page ad consisting of 250 of the most prominent headlines since Evan was wrongfully detained by Russia 250 days ago.

Hard to watch this from inside Putin's press conference. Evan should be in the hall with us. not in this cage. I asked what it would take to bring Evan & Paul Whelan home. He said: Russia is ā€œin contact w the American sideā€ but any agreement must be ā€œmutually acceptable.ā€

Last year, we celebrated NYE together in Berlin. Today Evan, our dear friend and colleague will spend New Year’s in a tiny cell in Moscow. We miss him everyday. Evan should be released immediately

Today marks 400 days since Evan was jailed for doing his job, another grim milestone that we hoped would never come. Evan has missed out on so much, isolated from the world that he loves and covered so well. There is a big hole in our hearts that won’t be filled until he is free

I recorded this last week in Kyiv. With President Trump set to make a major announcement today about the war, here’s a small glimpse of what Ukrainians have been living with night after night.
