@sun "a couple of billionaires" - one of them used to be the richest Russian. Given how big and public that "favour" to the Russians is, the explanation of "some spies" in Azerbaijan (confusingly not Uzbekistan) doesn't cut it.

@clemens I'm sure there's a calculus involved, but if a spy gets caught there's an obligation to try to get him back and it's respectable that France values the lives of its citizens over freeing up some money. In my opinion it's the right choice, but feel free to disagree, I respect that.

@sun I don't respect to get explanations that aren't any. If the official line is the explanation then I expect many more French and EU citizens to be taken hostage from now on 🤷

@sun @clemens if you throw your spies under the bus when they get caught then people stop wanting to spy for you
