Fast Chat: Mercy of the State.(presidential pardon on the political prisoner Mikhail Khodorkovsky)(Brief article)
A crisis-stricken Kremlin is courting Western investors, and activists hope this may lead to the release of high-profile political prisoners, like the Yukos Oil executives. (Last month, a terminally-ill Yukos man was allowed the option of dying at home.) Anna Nemtsova spoke to lawyer Yuri Schmidt about the likelihood of a pardon for Yukos oligarch Mikhail Khodorkovsky:
Would the release of Khodorkovsky be a positive sign for Western investors that Russia is becoming a rule-of-law state?
Many political leaders said publicly to Putin and Medvedev that such [a] decision would be welcomed by the West.
Are there signs that Medvedev will treat this case differently?
