If Vladimir Putin ever goes on trial for his savage invasion of Ukraine, one brave Russian lawyer says it would be an “honour” to fight his country’s dictator in court. His name is Vadim Prokhorov 🎙️ Interview
Even so, he says, things have worsened since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine last year. “Our law has been changed dramatically… The situation is horrible.”Vadim Prokhorov on his friendship with Vladimir Kara-Murza
“I hoped to work as a Russian lawyer for all my life,” he says. “I’m specialised in the Russian legal system and Russian civil law. Now I’m an exile. “Unfortunately it’s a usual situation for several generations of Russian emigrates: first after the October Revolution, then after the Second World War, then during the communist epoch. Now there is a new wave of Russian political emmigration. We’re in safety but it’s difficult for all of us to live abroad.”
“As with Hitler in German history or Mussolini in Italian history, this was a tragic mistake of Russian history”Reflecting on what life is like right now in the country he has reluctantly left behind, Prokhorov says: “There is oil for for the cars. There is electricity in the houses. There are people in the cafés and restaurants – not so many as before the war, but people still visit these places.
