Statements of Support (2003-2013) / Wiesel, Elie

“As long as Mikhail Khodorkovsky and Platon Lebedev are not free, I can assure you that we will keep on declaring that every day they spend in prison is an insult to universal conscience – an insult, an offense to these dreams of a fair and generous world. Giving them their freedom back, a new Russia would win respect from all mankind”

Elie Wiesel, world-renowned human rights activist and Nobel Peace Prize winner, July 2011
