Clinton: I do not expect Pollard to be released
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said on Monday that
she did not expect any change in the situation of jailed Israeli spy Jonathan
Pollard.
“With respect to Mr. Pollard, he was convicted of spying
in 1987. He was sentenced to life in prison, he is serving that sentence, and I
do not have any expectations that that is going to change,” Clinton said.
Her comments on Pollard came at a press conference
following a day of a marathon talks with Israeli officials in Jerusalem. During
her visit, Clinton was met by protesters calling for Pollard’s release.
