The United States confirmed on Friday that there have been talks with Russia to press for the release of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, but forewarned that those discussions “have not produced a clear pathway to a resolution.”
Speaking at a news conference on July 7, White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said he had the opportunity to meet with Mr. Gershkovich’s family and representatives for the New York-based newspaper to discuss the latest status of the case and the administration’s efforts to secure the reporter’s release.
