Looking back on the past
Mikhail Khodorkovsky names the three chief events of 2006.
Mikhail Khodorkovsky, the former head of Yukos 1. This last year scarred my heart several times over: Anna Politkovskaya, Andrei Kozlov, Yuri Levada. I’d like too to remember Arkady Ivanovich Volsky - who left the stage quietly, the way it sometimes happens. 2. The visit of my daughter Nastya. We hadn’t seen each other for a year and a half. 3. The return of nuclear weapons to world politics.
