Vladimir Putin has freed a former U.S. Marine after more than four years in a Russian prison, U.S. officials told Reuters.
Robert Gilman, 32, who served in the Marines from 2019 to 2020, had been imprisoned since January 2022. A trip through Russia on his way to an English-teaching job in Moldova ended with his arrest.
Russian authorities accused Gilman of being drunk and kicking a police officer during his stay. His father, Vladimir Gilman, has disputed that account, saying his son was sick and that the officer did not present evidence at Gilman’s trial.
