Interview with Mikhail Khodorkovsky: “Hoping for a good tsar – that is the biggest mistake of all”

Mr Khodorkovsky, Russia has one in eastern Ukraine new offensive began. Will Vladimir Putin still win this war?

In the end, Putin will definitely lose this war. There is no turning back for him. In his head he has been at war with NATO for a long time. This also applies to the majority of Russians. Putin is demanding that the alliance withdraw to the 1997 borders, i.e. to the status before NATO’s eastward expansion. Nothing changed about that. No one in the West will want to meet this demand. That’s why sooner or later Putin will have to deal with NATO. And of course lose.
