- @Thriley: Please supply a QPQ for this nom. Thanks. Z1720 (talk) 14:50, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
@Thriley and К.Артём.1: New enough and long enough. QPQ supplied 14:22, 19 July and added to the nomination. There is an expand tag on the article. It looks like ruwiki has more text to offer and an image of the subject. The hook tracks but is a bit wordy the way it came out, so I'm suggesting an ALT0a (the "on espionage charges" part can be removed). You will need to port more of the ruwiki page over such that the expand tag is not merited. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 01:04, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
