Journalist Pablo González will remain in observation at a health centre in Moscow for several days after a lung problem was detected in the medical tests he was released on 1 July. The woman of Pablo González, Oihana Goiriena, has stated that the conditions in which she was incarcerated in Poland "could have influenced", "without natural air, with moisture, much cold in winter and enclosed without heating, and hot in summer". "He had the covid-19 inside, and to see how it has healed, because it affects the lungs," he said in his Twitter account.

Goiriena, the woman of the informer, explained that she has spoken twice by telephone with him and that she intends to return to Nabarniz (Bizkaia), where she resides with her three children, after recovering the documentation that was discharged and confiscated.

As for the journalist, he said that he still does not know that "he is already well aware that he is not in prison, that he is free, that he can move whenever he wants without asking permission and without putting his spine right". "It's still landing," he said.

Gonzalez was released last week by the National High Court. The release took place through an exchange of prisoners between Russia and Poland, after spending two years and five months in prison. Over the weekend, the journalist has had the opportunity to speak over the phone with her family and told them it is "OK". As Goiriena explained, González wants to return to Euskal Herria, but before that he wants to fully recover. In addition, it needs a passport and an identity card, as Poland has not yet returned it. It is therefore not clear when you will be able to return.

Pablo González was born in Moscow in 1982. He was arrested in 2022 by the secret services of Poland, charged with a crime of espionage. At that time, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine was under way and González was in Poland to report on the crisis of refugees trying to flee from Ukraine to that country. Since then, Radomgo has been held in a maximum security prison in the capital of Poland. His relatives have repeatedly denounced that, during that time, Poland has not submitted any specific accusations against him and that his prison has been extended uninterruptedly. After two years and five months of captivity, the date for its prosecution had not yet been set.
