An American journalist has been detained on suspicion of spying for Washington, Russia said Thursday, drawing immediate outrage from the West with the White House condemning the allegation as "ridiculous". Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich is believed to be the first foreign journalist held for spying in post-Soviet Russia, and his arrest is expected to escalate the Kremlin's confrontation with the West amid Moscow's assault on Ukraine.
