Statements of Support (2003-2013) / Leutheusser-Schnarrenberger, Sabine

“I really doubt it is a fair trial with truly independent judges and prosecution that will take everything into consideration that may exonerate a defendant…I would dispute any sweeping statement that everything Mr. Khodorkovsky is accused of can be generally judged criminal. Some of the acts were performed by everyone, and legal at the time”
