Accused of spying and jailed in the US, Russian student and gun rights activist Maria Butina has told RT about her ordeal, from staring down a dozen armed FBI agents at her door to how Hollywood cliches served as proof of guilt.

WNU editor: I could be wrong, but it is hard to see her as a spy. As for her conviction. As I tell everyone who travels abroad, always be aware of the laws of the country that you are visiting. What may be nothing to you is a big thing in the country that you visiting. In the case of Maria Butina, she should have been aware of the laws before becoming politically active in the U.S..
