Whelan Detained 8 Hours From Moscow, Impeding 'Consular Support' From Embassy, Says Brother
David Whelan, whose brother Paul Whelan is serving a 16-year sentence in a Russian labor camp, and former U.S. ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul join Andrea Mitchell after Brittney Griner received a guilty verdict and 9 year prison sentence. Whelan explains how the Russian government has isolated his brother by imprisoning him far from the U.S. embassy. “He's about 8 hours from Moscow. It's not the normal way that it works in Russia,” says Whelan. “But they put Americans out about 8 hours away from the embassy, which makes it hard for the embassy to provide consular support.” » Subscribe to MSNBC: https://ift.tt/AZDsrGo MSNBC delivers breaking news, in-depth analysis of politics headlines, as well as commentary and informed perspectives.
