I mean it will be. That’s how international politics works generally.
They throw the book at a foreign National whose Government they have issues with. Usually with a sentence uncharacteristically severe when compared to what they’d give their own citizens for the same offense. The Foreign Government contacts them and says they’ll talk if their citizen gets released or a reduced sentence.
Why do you think the Russians are handing out death penalties to the captured Mercs and foreign dumbasses. Not because they’re morally opposed to the use of Mercs or give a flying shit about war crimes or international law. They’re leveraging them to get their home countries to come to the table.
They’ll most certainly execute the Mercs if nothing happens. But the intent though is to prompt negotiations.
