US-Russian dual national Ksenia Karelina has been sentenced to 12 years in a Russian prison for treason after allegedly raising money for the Ukrainian military. Karelina was convicted on charges linked to a $51 (€46) donation to a US charity. Russia’s Federal Security Service said she “proactively collected money in the interests of one of the Ukrainian organisations, which was subsequently used to purchase tactical medical supplies, equipment, weapons, and ammunition for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.” Karelina, a former ballet dancer, obtained US citizenship after marrying her husband and moving to Los Angeles. #russia #ksenia #worldnews #news18 #kseniakerliana #russianewstoday News18 Mobile App -
