Spy Swap in the Works?

Can they at least leave Anna behind?

Russia has offered a mass Cold War-style 'spy swap' deal to the U.S., it was revealed today.

The deal could see up to 11 convicted spies - allegedly including a Russian colonel - exchanged for 'femme fatale' Anna Chapman and her co-accused.

Chapman is being held with nine others in the U.S. on accusations of being part of a 'deep cover' spy ring in the U.S.

Dmitry Sutyagin said his brother Igor, a former Russian nuclear researcher jailed on charged of spying for the West, was told he will be part of the group.

Russian and U.S. officials met Igor Sutyagin on Monday at a prison in Arkhangelsk, in northwestern Russia, his brother said.

Sutyagin said he was made to sign a confession, although he maintains his innocence and does not want to leave Russia, his brother said.

After the meeting, Sutyagin was transferred to Moscow's Lefortovo prison.

He was arrested in 1999 and convicted in 2004 on charges of passing information on nuclear submarines and missile-warning systems to a British company that investigators claimed was a CIA cover.

Sutyagin's lawyer said Moscow wanted the swap to take place tomorrow - and that her client would initially be sent to Britain.

According to his brother, Sutyagin said that the Russian officials had shown him a list of 11 people to be included in the swap.

Meanwhile, the government has decided to release one of the spies on bail. Figures it's the one most vocal and critical of the United States.
