In 2004 the oil tycoon and richest man in Russia Mikhail Khodorkovsky and his business partner Platon Lebedev were imprisoned. This became known as the YUKOS case - a landmark lawsuit in Putin's Russia as it ushered in the end of Russian business holding any power in the country. Anna Nemzer looks at this event as the beginning of Putin's suppression of political rivals as it is widely believed that Khodorkovsky had political ambitions.

Anna Nemzer you are doing a great job - and very brave.
What do you mean, she is lying and blaming the wrong party.
Pure propaganda...
@@Pharesm
🤔 evidence?
@@Pharesm The Putin early clips are lies?
@@Pharesm Yawn. More boring predictable russian twaddle. From Potemkin village to Potemkin country.
Thing is she is talking the truth and it's you that tells lies
Such a tragedy for Russia.
Russia did not invent crooks, lies, or propaganda, but they sure try to excell at it.
So I'm glad there are still Russians who uphold moral and professional standards, and work to lay bare the ugly truth. Well done TV Rain.
Excellent, well stated! "Gopniks" of the Kremlin are destroying Russia's military industrial complex, which absolutely was mostly make-believe anyways! (As Ukrainians daily prove!)
So Good to hear the Russian voice of True Freedom .
Amazing video! We can't appreciate enough the courage of these journalists. 🙌🙏
Putin is living in luxury and has no worries about the Russian struggles in daily life !!!
It’s the 1st sign of not being in touch with reality.
God bless ukanias family and volunteer 💙💛
Fascinating. Thank you for this magnificently clear summary. 😮The trajectory of Putin’s tightening grip on power is as I remember it, but details grow increasingly foggy in my 76 y.o. Memory. As a layperson in New York I never knew all these details. And I had deep suspicion of khodorofsky (sp?) somewhat equating him with the other oligarchs.
That said, I always had doubts about those apartment explosions in Dagestan and around Moscow and other terrorist attacks, which served as an excuse to seize extra powers and fight the second Chechen war.
You add flesh and detail to suspicion. Again, thank you. 😊
Well done TV Rain. Keeo up the good work. There must be opposition voices allowed to be heard.
Very good.
Thanks for sharing this interesting story.
Love your Star Trek outfit. Live long and prosper.
Slava Ukraine !.
I remember some years ago having a conversation with a gentleman I know who managed a company dealing in timeshare in the private air travel business. His company made the decision to leave the Russian market. His comment always stuck with me. Russia is run by a mafia and if you are not prepared to bribe someone its impossible to do business there.
This seems to be a common story I have heard so many times. How did so many western corporations and businesses think it was ok to set up shop in such conditions?
Are all these companies operating corruptly in the west as well? 🤔🤷🏻♂️
@@Aussie-Mocha Probably. Our wheat board was accused of bribing in Iraq. They denied it for a long time and seemed credible but were eventually exposed
Good work. Keep it on. 👍
This is what the United States would look like under trump.
Love the Star Trek shirt Live long and prosper . this man went through hell . ive known about all this for 20 years. Putin did not want to be questioned or told anything. He murdered and poisoned his way to where he is now.
Another great segment, keep it up!
*thumbsup*
Helps to understand and learn more Whats happened and Whats happening.
Thank you
Speaking TRUTH to power in '💩tins' Ruzzia is not possible - so Thank you for standing up for those that can not do it themselves.
Peace for Ukraine.
Freedom for Russians.
I was initially sceptical of this channel knowing nothing about it but after listening to this very impressive vid I immediately subscribed. Anna's professional presentation combined with thorough authoritative material I'd a breathe of fresh air. True journalism. Thank you 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'm jealous of that coffee mug. It's huge.😊
interesting, thanks
A very fine report. Thank you so much and very glad I found it. It added so much to the whole Yukos story and Khodorkovsky who I admire very much. When Putin became such a liar, such a violent criminal without ANY feeling for, for example, the tens of thousands dying on the battlefield for his fantasies. Did he first become embedded in the criminal and bribe business in St Petersburg when he was deputy mayor? Was it as a KGB agent in East Berlin? Was it his childhood? Was it his judo involvement and the nature of the person who ran it???So many questions. At the beginning he seemed fairly normal, except nervous, and he made a crass observation when the Russian submarine went down at the beginning of his time as pm..."Death happens" he said (or similar) to the wives of the submariners surrounding him, demanding answers...
The Western public and politicians need a serious upgrade in their knowledge about Russia and you are chipping away at it.
I recommend David Satter and Owen Matthews books on the recent developments in Russia - between 1990 and now.
Thank you Anna Nemzer for this overview on the persecution of Khodorkovsky and the hostile take over of Yukos.
PS, are you a Startrek fan or are you broadcasting from the Enterprise in Hollywood?
Does not matter but she is still far more interesting than you
@@Timmt09 you didn’t answer his question. You must be a romulan spy.
Anyone would like to have the luxury and power putin enjoys. Especially narcissists...
How many relatives or business partners of US Congress persons are in custody of Russia, China, Iran and other hostile countries?
Harkonens.
Chodorkovki ist a Pol?😂😂😂
You are the resistance🫵
Your colors?
😂
What the f... you know, go wash the dishes
you insted.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oh no! She is blowing hot air.
Oh no. Are you having trouble breathing?
Better call a shrink 😂
What kind of horse shit is this?
Do you think any country that gets forced into a war could avoid loss of business?
Fairytale 😂
How can you not shed tears for a multi ibillionaire over cruel destiny ?
Putin has properties all over Europe and a palace by the sea. He is one of the richest people in the world while pipes freeze and crack, bridges collapse and flooded town receive no assistance and have to fend for themselves. All the wealth from the regions outside Moscow and St Petersburg have been robbed and stripped of their resources with no money going into infrastructure and public works to improve their lives.
Transparent))) Russian business - organize western firm whom you will be selling Russian resources with the cheapest price possible . Your operation spending will be in Russia - and pure profit in the West!! And here you are - 10 years in prison with confiscation - moved to the West and enjoy with the money accumulated there)) Hello where is successful business of Khodorkovsky in the West? - he is good for nothing........
I'd also like to see Putin's successful career in the West. In the Hague, maybe......
@@psihopedia If your dream would be accomplished - it doesn't not change reality - power in RF will be always in hands of FSB))
What would you prefer? - to be homeless drug-addict in a street of Sun Fransisco - or to be a resident of an abandoned village in Russia?
The unique political system in Russia - allowed to make money and prohibit to kick out bankrupts from their dwellings......
@psihopedia
Either Putin will end up in the Hague, or the Hague might end up in Russia , in other words Putin might show up in the Hague in the tank.
If
@@valerijoukov239
I’ll take drug addiction and homelessness in the west.
At least there is ACTUAL fair possibility to get help, get work and a home without having to bribe anyone or resort to military conscription for quick $$!
@@Aussie-Mocha No doubt - if you overdosed - you will get help - you even get free narcotic for your next nirvana))) - but you will never get work and home.....
In Russian village - you will never see a policemen or an official (nobody to bribe:)) - organic food, own roof, and complete freedom to do whatever you like......
PUTIN PUTIN PUTIN 😂we’re not talking about Biden and western leaders anyway they are that important anymore 😂
Well u might not be living in Russia Then 🎉 Kiss the golden 👟😂
Happy trolling 🤡
You mean PUTLER?
It’s all BS and lies
Yes! Russian narratives are all BS and misinformation. It is the global centre for propaganda, conspiracy theories and influence peddling. Western countries have been blind to it making its way all through our institutions and media platforms.
no.
You boycott everything that is meaningful.
How the fuck you can say anything when Ukraine is dead.
