The practice of seizing foreigners to use as trading tokens makes me think no foreigner should ever visit Russia for any reason. This can't be good for tourism, foreign investment, etc. This will be a return to the Iron Curtain.
Also, that these prisoners were seized on weak accusations, really diminishes any reputational gain Russia could get by appearing "magnanimous"
