Vladimir Kara-Murza: “We have not had a free and fair national election in Russia in more than 16 years.”

There are absolutely no limits to what Vladimir Putin can do. I think the world is seeing this loud and clear now as we're witnessing this large scale land war, this large scale war crime happening right at the heart of Europe.

I consider him to be a dictator, a usurper and a murderer, who's personally responsible for the deaths of his political opponents, Boris Nemtsov, like Alexei Navalny, who is personally responsible for the deaths of thousands of civilians…

Every concession to dictators hides a tragedy.

[The] principle of ‘following local laws, no matter what they are’ provides a convenient excuse. But it’s just that: an excuse and a moral dodge.
