Artur Petrov, a Russian who recently returned to Russia as part of a prisoner swap between Moscow and Washington, stated that he has no health complaints.
The statement was made in a video released by the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) yesterday.

Earlier in the day, the FSB announced that Petrov, who had been detained in Cyprus at the request of the US, was exchanged for Ksenia Karelina, a Russian convicted of treason.
The swap took place through the mediation of the United Arab Emirates.

“I do not have any particular complaints, I am just very tired,” Petrov said in the video.
The footage also showed medical personnel examining Petrov aboard the plane, checking his condition and blood pressure.
Petrov had been arrested in the US on charges of violating export restrictions and faced up to 20 years in prison.
