WSJ reporter Evan Gershkovich has been held hostage in Russia for two weeks. Proud of him and never more proud of working for the Journal and of its response to his detention. #IStandWithEvan

The Wall Street Journal & all supporters of free speech & a free press are marking TWO WEEKS since the @WSJ's Evan Gershkovich was arrested/imprisoned in Russia. The U.S. gov't has declared him wrongfully detained. He is a dedicated journalist & should be freed. #IStandWithEvan
