Conor Kennedy, RFK Jr.'s Son, Added to Russia's Wanted List

Conor Kennedy, son of U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., has been added to Russia’s international wanted list following his service with Ukraine's International Legion in 2022. On August 12, a Moscow court authorized his arrest in absentia on mercenarism charges, which could lead to a prison sentence of seven to ten years.

Despite lacking military experience, Kennedy traveled to Ukraine without informing his family, serving on the frontline for two and a half months before returning to Georgetown University. He expressed his motivations on Instagram, stating he felt compelled to help after witnessing the situation in Ukraine.

RFK Jr. remarked he only became aware of his son's actions through credit card transactions, later expressing pride in Conor's decision.
