France watches as Khodorkovsky case finally concludes
From London to Paris, all of Europe has watched with great interest as this story unfolded:
The case of Mikhail Khodorkovsky that has been shaking Russia for several months has finally been concluded and decided. The Western media along with Russian activists have paid great deal of time and effort to properly analyse the case as this has been a highly contraversial occasion. The Russian businessman have been convicted of stealing from his own oil company and still many have no doubts that he has not committed anything but being improper for the political parties and namely the political leader of Russia - the ex president Vladimir Putin.
The case has been read in front of a crowded Moscow court where many people from the media, political life and activists have been present. This case was proclaimed to be one of the most important cases after the ages of Soviet Russia as it would display the impartiality of the judiciary in the country and would put forward the justice delivering process rather than the political ambitions and powers of the rulers. However, after the verdict has been read, many would doubt any of these as the Russian businessman along with his partner Lebedev received six more years in prison.
Some tend to believe that the president elections would be quite a dangerous occasion for Khodorkovsky to be out of prison. His grown popularity and the symbol of a proper man and a good businessman for the population might provoke some unseen political career by the businessman. This might have been the fears of the ruling politicians that might have seen some quite powerful and remarkably decent opponent. And no matter his conviction and guilty verdict, Khodorkovsky remains some of the most influential figures in the Russian society in the past year and would be mentioned in the legal textbooks in the country. Some joke that a person should not even book the cheapest flights to Russia - making business there might lead to the same consequences for anyone not ’good’enough for the ruling politicians.
