So Germans can, for example, arrest and throw to prison CIA director when he decides to go visit Germany the next time?
And what about saudis? they all, 100% violate US laws while living in SA. Would not it be nice to throw them all in US prison?
Were the heads of the FSB or GRU indicted by a US prosecutor? I must have missed that. But, in principle, yes. As for the Saudis, I must admit that I would like to see them thrown into a US prison. The reality is that indictments are handed down against people by a grand jury on the basis of evidence that those individuals committed crimes. Their bosses aren't usually indicted, unless there is some credible evidence of their direct involvement.
So do you have a problem with indicting foreign government people for something you are doing as well?
No, I don't have a problem with Russians indicting Americans who break Russian laws. Most nations have spy organizations that conduct intelligence activities in other countries, and that isn't going to stop because some country, ours or yours, unilaterally decides to dismantle its spy operations. It would be nice if we could all live in peace, harmony and a yellow submarine, but that turns out to be easier to imagine than to achieve. We could certainly use more diplomacy and less saber rattling.
I understand that US justice system is independent and all but the only reason why russians are meddling is because you are meddling. If you stop they will stop as well.
Seriously? You actually buy into the narrative that America is responsible for Russia's bad behavior? You must live in a country of misunderstood saints. If everyone just stopped hating Russians, you wouldn't be forced to be bad guys, would you?
