US President Joe Biden pledged Friday to "continue working every day" for Evan Gershkovich's release from Russian detention, as the American reporter's time in jail hits the one-year mark.
"We will continue to denounce and impose costs for Russia's appalling attempts to use Americans as bargaining chips," Biden said in a statement that also mentioned the case of Paul Whelan, a US citizen held in Russia since 2018.
