His family told Pres. Biden to 'find the political will' to win his release.

Reed's Russian girlfriend told ABC News that he started his hunger strike last Thursday, Nov. 4. His family confirmed the news through his Russian attorney, saying in a statement Monday that he is protesting"his arbitrary detention and Russian authorities' numerous and flagrant violations of his basic human rights and his rights under Russian law."In this March 11, 2020, file photo, U.S.

In a labor camp in the remote Mordovia region for months now, Reed has been confined to a small cell that doesn't include a toilet, and items that U.S. Ambassador to Russia John Sullivan brought for him when he visited in September have not been given to him by prison guards, according to his family."Our concern is magnified by Russian authorities' decision to hold Trevor incommunicado which makes it impossible for us or the Embassy to monitor his health," they said.

But there was no deal reached in the weeks and months that followed, and a family representative told ABC News that they are not aware of any talks ongoing right now to free Reed.
