- Ksenia Karelina is a 33-year-old Russian who faces U.S. charges for donating $50 to Ukraine.
- Karelina was arrested in Russia for allegedly supporting Ukraine against them.
- Her boyfriend Chris Van is collecting donations for legal defense.
Ksenia Karelina, 33 years old, was born in Russia but also has U.S. citizenship. She’s dating Chris Van Heerden. She’s in trouble in Russia for donating $50 to Ukraine, which Russia sees as supporting Ukraine against them.
She got arrested when she went to Russia to visit her family after leaving over 10 years ago. The charges against her are because she gave money to a Ukrainian charity while she was working in Beverly Hills, California.
She might face 20 years in prison for this. Her family and boyfriend are trying to help, but it’s hard because Russia doesn’t recognize her U.S. citizenship, making it tough for the U.S. government to help.
Her boyfriend is collecting donations to pay for her legal defense since finding a lawyer in Russia is difficult and expensive.
Ksenia’s life started in Russia, then she moved to the U.S. for studies and work. She had relationships and a career in Los Angeles before this trouble in Russia.
