Markey	M000133	www.markey.senate.gov	markey	https://www.markey.senate.gov/news/press-releases	scraper	Washington (August 6, 2026) - Senator Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.) today released the following statement on the detention of Massachusetts resident and former Marine Robert Gilman by the Russian government. “My office has been closely monitoring the detention of Robert Gilman–a Massachusetts resident and former Marine who has been held in Russia on questionable charges for 1,662 days–nearly four and a half years. “We have been made aware by Robert’s family and advocates working on his behalf that approximately 48 days ago, he was diagnosed with a dissociative stupor–a condition where he is non-responsive and unable to interact or eat. He is essentially catatonic and has also suffered a severe case of pneumonia. “I am very worried that, if urgent action is not taken to release Robert so he can receive urgent medical care in the United States, his condition could become permanent, or he could die in Russian custody. I implore the United States and Russian governments to find a solution before we find ourselves in a situation that will further complicate an already difficult relationship.” “I am praying for Robert and his family today.” ###	1	2026-08-07T06:11:19Z	2026-08-07T06:12:42Z
