The arrest of the German citizen in Russia holds particular significance amidst ongoing negotiations between Moscow and Berlin regarding a potential prisoner exchange involving a Russian individual imprisoned for murder in Germany, as part of broader discussions with the United States. The German passport, six cannabis-infused candies, and the “Fink Green Goldbears” package are all visible in the images that the customs office has taken. The detained person faces a maximum sentence of seven years in jail for narcotics smuggling.
