Claim
the pair are also preparing to visit Russia
Attributed to reports (unspecified source)
Evidence
No search was run, and the claim has no context. It says only that 'the pair' are preparing to visit Russia, and the source is given as unspecified 'reports'. Without knowing who the two people are, when the visit is supposed to happen, or which outlet reported it, there is nothing to check against Reuters Fact Check, AFP Fact Check, Bellingcat or EUvsDisinfo. I found no independent corroboration and no existing fact-check.
Assessment
The claim is too vague to identify, because 'the pair' is undefined and the source is unspecified. With no corroboration and no fact-check found, UNVERIFIED is the only supportable status.
Confidence
Little or no independent corroboration was found - this reflects the current state of public evidence, not a guess.
