Statements of Support (2003-2013) / Krasnov, Alexander

“I can clearly see that Khodorkovsky and Lebedev made mistakes. We know how State property found its way into the hands of a small group of people. Punishment has been handed down for this mistake and they have already spent six years in inhuman conditions behind bars. The restraint displayed by Khodorkovsky and Lebedev prompts respect. In my view they have already atoned for their guilt and if the opposition comes to power they will be released and put to work”
