Biden’s Secret Plan to Expel Russian NHL Stars Including Ovechkin: A High-Stakes Move to Pressure Putin Revealed

He decided against it.”
Instead, Sullivan and the administration went forward with a 24-man prisoner exchange that included the hitman. Per the BBC, the exchange was the largest such swap since the Cold War.
