Evan Gershkovich, an American journalist working for the Wall Street Journal, has been detained in Russia for over a year on espionage charges.
Russia claims that Evan was trying to get secret information about their military, specifically from a tank factory, but he denies these accusations.
The US government has stated that the charges against Evan are false, and the Wall Street Journal has labeled the trial a sham.
This trial, set to begin on June 26th, will be held behind closed doors, with only the judge and the lawyers present.
