I can't see the article, but certain parts of the second person bio appear to be missing.
Khodorkovsky, was arrested by Putin years ago for promoting democracy.
"Once he was the richest man in Russia, but Vlad the Inhaler of Illusions stole his riches and expelled him from the country. Unlike Pootie, he’s a man of proven ability, who became wealthy on his own merits, but wanted to share the riches with his fellow Russians and actually help them improve their government. He’s lucky to be alive. A German diplomat helped get him out."
if they're training.....they're coming....tanks that it is..

Regarding the Leopard-2 tanks, the minister said that countries have achieved “a positive breakthrough.” He explained that today's meeting participants agreed that countries with Leopard-2s in service could begin training Ukrainian tank crews.

"In 2014, Khodorkovsky re-launched Open Russia to promote several reforms to Russian civil society, including free and fair elections, political education, protection of journalists and activists, endorsing the rule of law, and ensuring media independence.[16][17] He was described by The Economist as "the Kremlin's leading critic-in-exile"."

It's precisely because of people like Khodorkovsky words like "freedom and democracy" leave the bitter taste in Russians.
People like Khodorkovsky started vouching for the "rule of law," after they paved their way to owning the natural resources of Russia in the most thuggish and murderous manner. Apparently at that point Khodorkovsky was not concerned with the "rule of law" in the slightest.
Just saying.
giving tanks to Ukraine is certainly and escalator step in this proxy war. We are within a finger nail of this being a hot war with Nato which most of us do no want.
