Moscow slams Zdorovenin extradition to the US
Moscow has accused Washington of wrongful application of its extraterritorial legislation in its dealings with Russian citizens, Russia’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich stated with reference to the case of Vladimir Zdorovenin who had been arrested in Zurich and extradited to the US.

Wow, that's a good arrest.

If Moscow at least gave off the appearance of handling these criminal acts, I could understand their complaint about the handling of their citizens with regards to criminal extradition. But as it sits now, I don't think they have a leg to stand on.

Good find.

The Russians are fond of pointing out that they don't have an extradition treaty with the US. When were they expecting the Americans to arrest him?
