In this compelling episode, we explore the case of Ksenia Karelina, a dual US-Russian citizen sentenced to 12 years in a Russian penal colony for donating $51.80 to a charity supporting Ukraine. Arrested during a family visit in Yekaterinburg, Karelina's plea deal and the closed-door trial raise critical questions about Russia's harsh treason laws and their impact on dissent. Join us as we discuss the implications of her case amidst the ongoing geopolitical tensions and the risks faced by individuals caught in this complex landscape.
