Statements of Support (2003-2013) / Andrikiene, Laima MEP

“The court’s decision does not at all change the injustice of Khodorkovsky’s imprisonment or the politically-motivated nature of his prosecution. This was merely a case of the court implementing the new Russian law on sentencing. It was not an act of mercy or an admission that the conviction was flawed”
