Ex-footballer “Spartacus” Yevgeny Lovchev during the broadcast of the program “There is a theme!” on “” got into a skirmish with American journalist Michael Bohm, discussing the arrest of a basketball player from the United States Britney Greiner.
Greiner was arrested in February on suspicion of trying to illegally import hash oil through Sheremetyevo airport, and a criminal case was opened for drug trafficking. The basketball player faces 5 to 10 years in prison.
The trial is ongoing, the next meeting is scheduled for August 2. Greiner has been playing for UMMC Yekaterinburg since 2015. She won the Olympics twice with the USA team (2016, 2020).
– We are talking about one person in particular, this girl, double Olympic champion, who broke our law. Only and all! What can the conversation be about? What, was she the only American playing on our teams? Many American basketball players have played at UMMC. And no one caught them anywhere and didn’t do anything on purpose or not on purpose. They didn’t break any laws.
Michael (addressing Bohm – editor’s note), you always start, here you have this or that country… And what are you missing? You are a prominent person, you would have been exchanged for Powers, who has already flown in our country, to be honest. Why do you miss? Because you’re not breaking the law. She broke the law!
What a famous person Efremov Misha, but he broke the law, Streltsov,” Lovchev said on .
Earlier, US television channel CNN reported that US President Joe Biden had backed plans to swap Russian Viktor Bout for US Representatives Paul Whelan and Greiner. CNN cites a senior source in the Biden administration.
Bom lives in Moscow, is a regular guest of political programs on Russian television.
A reconnaissance aircraft piloted by American Francis Gary Powers was shot down while flying over the territory of the USSR in the Sverdlovsk region in 1960. Powers survived, was sentenced by a Soviet court for espionage to 10 years from prison, and a year and a half later he was exchanged for the Soviet intelligence officer Rudolf Abel, unmasked in the United States.
