1. Russia ordered an American Diplomat to be deported due to accusations of recruiting a member of Russian security services. “Nikolai Zakharov, a spokesman for the FSB, said the Russian approached by Fogle was free and that there were no charges or accusations against him.”
Is this fair? If a Russian/Iranian/Syrian spy would have been detected on US soil, would his/her expulsion or deportation be a fair response?
