We waited to rejoice until he walked off the Russian plane, and thank god he did. This is our story of Evan's plight, and the remarkable efforts that culminated in his release today. It is long, and and I haven't finished it myself as there has been a lot of weeping and hugging and smiling and toasting in the newsroom today. We are all thankful to the many people in and around journalism and in the world who stood with Evan, his family and the Journal these last 16 months.

I don’t see the reason for any visit to Russia.
