US reporter Jason Rezaian ‘convicted’ in Iran over spying

This topic is about problem of spying. On October 12, a verdict has been issued in the trial about Jason Rezaian who is a reporter in US. He was detained in Iran because he was doubtful as a spy. Jason Rezaian, 39, has been detained in Iran for more than a year. If he will be found guilty, he would be inflicted the punishment of facing 10 to 20 years in prison.  Mr. Rezaian and his lawyer were eligible to appeal the conviction within 20 days.

I think this topic expresses a high state of tension and it does not have no connection in Japan. In September, Japanese people were detained in China with being suspected as a spy. There many similar points between our topic and this case in China. To make espionage actively is caused by the relationship in international society or among countries. The case which is about Japanese being detained will make the relationship between Japan and China more severely. This is very serious problem for japan. Given that reason, I think this topic expresses a high state of tension and it does not have no connection in Japan.
