Statements of Support (2003-2013) / Trittin, Juergen MEP and Beck, Marieluise MEP
“The absurd verdict spoken in December 2010 documents the legal nihilism which is deplored by President Medvedev and was now basically confirmed by higher authorities. The reduction of the sentence of one year is just cosmetics…. Prime Minister Putin and his entourage in the Kremlin won. They apparently fear a Mikhail Khodorkovsky in freedom so much that they are up to every perversion of justice”
Juergen Trittin MEP and Marieluise Beck MEP Germany (Green Party), Head of Parliamentary Group (Trittin) & Spokesperson for Eastern European Affairs (Beck), May 26, 2011
