Beyond the question about if it's ok or not what Greenpeace activists do, my question was more related to how much time do you think they'll stay captive by the Russians, as the GP site says: "The charges of piracy and hooliganism are extreme and disproportionate". As Tyson said I also think Russia is sending a message but i hope they'll release them eventually, in the short term i mean. I understand they may have "crossed the barrier" this time but they're not criminals and their family is waiting for them.
