The Kremlin said it's open to talking about a possible prisoner exchange involving U.S. basketball star Brittney Griner who was sentenced to nine years in prison for drug possession and smuggling, but warned Washington against publicizing the issue.

Brittney Griner is seen on Thursday behind bars during her hearing in Russian prison. The Kremlin said Friday it is only willing to discuss a possible swap in private.

Really!! Russia started the publicizing idea of prisoner swaps!! 'People in glass houses should not throw stones'!!!

Bruh if they didn’t want it publicized then don’t arrest a public figure

Great. A war criminal for an America hating pothead.

Great example this set for the kids. An embarrassment to the team and the country. CBC's xenophobic Russiphobia is the only reason its 24/7 reported, they want us to feel sorry for a criminal who sufferers from exceptionalism and thinks they are above the law.

This criminal wouldn't be news if it was in Thailand, Britt would be facing the death penalty/life sentence. Its all just more Russiaphobia, it serves a perfect distraction for Freelands Nazis losing so badly in Ukraine. CBC wont even show Zelensky using banned mines in Doneskt.

They should trade her for Trump

If you do the crime do the time

And what about all the Americans in jail for cannabis charges? This is bad but also fix yourselves while you're at it America.

Some time in a Russian jail would teach him a lesson.

Leave her in jail. She hates the US. 😂

Ok, but let's raise the pot to include Trump for Putin.

Let her rot!Maybe she wont take a knee after serving 9 yrs!

Where are her boobies?

Putin wants his yachts back lol

Of course they are. All about leverage. Only reason they held her captive was for an exchange

At what cost?

Lmao don’t publicize the issue? A wee bit late for that I’d say.
