Show Notes

Paul Whelan (Marine Corps veteran and wrongfully detained U.S. citizen) joins Chris Cuomo to discuss his more than five years in a Russian prison on espionage charges, his fight for freedom, and what his experience reveals about U.S. diplomacy and Putin’s Russia. He details the conditions he endured, the emotional toll of being left behind while other Americans were freed, and the broader implications of wrongful detainment. Whelan also shares his perspective on Russia’s justice system, diplomatic negotiations, and what needs to change to better support Americans held abroad.
