Russia Rejects U.S. Journalist Gershkovich’s Detention Appeal
Quick Glance: Moscow Court Upholds Extension of Detention for Reporter Evan Gershkovich
  • Following the rejection of Evan Gershkovich's appeal, a reporter for the Wall Street Journal, he will remain in custody on espionage charges until at least late June.

  • Detained in late March 2023 during a reporting trip, the 32-year-old US citizen has spent over a year in prison, with his detention being regularly prolonged and his appeals being turned down.

  • Experts suggest that Moscow might be leveraging jailed Americans as leverage in the escalating tensions between the US and Russia due to the Kremlin's military operation in Ukraine.

  • Gershkovich's arrest marks the first time since September 1986 that an American reporter has been detained in Russia on espionage charges, when Nicholas Daniloff, a Moscow correspondent for U.S. News and World Report, was apprehended by the KGB.

Quick Glance: Measures Against TikTok: Biden Sets Deadline for Sale
  • President Biden has signed legislation requiring ByteDance to fully divest from TikTok within a year or potentially face a nationwide ban.

  • This action poses a significant challenge to the future of the video-streaming app in the U.S. and escalates the technological conflict between America and China.

  • TikTok plans to take legal action against the Biden administration, citing concerns that the law could impede the free speech of millions of Americans.

  • This requirement was incorporated into a bill providing foreign aid for Israel, Ukraine, and Taiwan, mandating ByteDance to sell its stake in TikTok within 12 months under the threat of closure.

Quick Glance: DOJ Calls for Binance Founder to Spend Three Years in Prison
  • The U.S. Department of Justice stated that Binance's founder, Changpeng "CZ" Zhao, should spend three years in prison for enabling the crypto exchange to violate federal laws on money laundering and sanctions.

  • Zhao pleaded guilty to violating the Bank Secrecy Act, with the DOJ recommending a 36-month prison sentence and a $50 million fine.

  • Emphasizing the need for a significant punishment, the DOJ highlighted Zhao's financial gains from illegal activities and the importance of deterring others from similar actions.

  • The court will decide between incarceration and probation for Zhao, with his defense arguing against his knowledge of specific transactions and advocating for probation due to a lack of risk of repeat offenses.
