Notably, the trial, initially planned for August, has been cancelled, meaning that Tishchenko has pleaded guilty on at least several charges he is facing.

Previously, the Russian Embassy in the United States said in a statement that the case of Russian citizen Tishchenko has signs of a provocation, staged by the US intelligence services.

Oleg Tishchenko was indicted back in 2016 but was detained early this year in Georgia and subsequently extradited to the United States on several charges, including conspiracy and smuggling.
