Former Russian oligarch Mikhail Khodorkovsky describes Russia’s “special military operation” as an idiotic target.
Putin said he considered the operation a victory, but for Khodorkovsky, it was his fault. He explained that the Russian president wanted to change power in Kyiv, but he did not succeed and that is why he is now suffering defeats. We do not know how much extra force he will use to achieve his idiotic goals, Khodorkovsky said in an interview with the BBC.
According to the exiled oligarch, Putin is not ready to go all the way. “If he loses in Donbass, he will be forced to withdraw.” In his opinion, Russia is not very likely to use nuclear weapons in Ukraine, but at the same time the forces of the Russian army are quite overestimated.
“A very correct and important signal for all those involved in this conflict,” Khodorkovsky described the West’s actions in providing weapons and training to Ukrainian forces.

A fatal mistake of the western world. This is how he describes Europe’s dependence on Russian energy. “I think a few years ago, maybe around 10, the West made a fatal mistake, relying on Russian energy, Russian oil and gas.utin 10 years ago he knew where this story was going. It was at this point that it was important to take steps to ensure energy security. “
“Putin does not consider NATO a serious organization. And in reality very few Russians are seriously afraid of NATO. NATO is an explanation for Russian citizens to be afraid to take to the streets, to protest against this regime, for not feeling like rubbish when they bomb neighboring countries, “he added.
In an interview with BBC X.Odorkowski also gave his decision on the situation in the Kremlin – it should have gone to a parliamentary, not a presidential republic.
