Moscow: The Kremlin said on Friday it had read "curious information" about the arrest in France of a Russian national suspected of planning to sabotage the Olympic Games, but said Moscow needed more information from authorities in Paris.
French police on Wednesday arrested a 40-year-old Russian man who it said was involved in plots to destabilise the Olympics, which kick off in Paris on Friday.
