Leonid Nevzlin said Saturday that Putin 'destroys Russian-speaking cities' and 'human beings' as 'his way to take revenge.'
Nevzlin's comments came in an interview with The Times of Israel, in which the former vice president of the oil company, Yukos, which was broken up by the Russian government in the early 2000s, said that, at first, Putin"was aiming for the renewal of the Soviet model and the annexation of Ukraine, Moldova and Belarus to Russia." But now,"everything has changed."
"Putin is trying to destroy Ukraine. We understand it from this unbearable violence and the horrific nature of this war," Nevzlin told the online newspaper."He destroys Russian-speaking cities, he destroys human beings. This is his way to take revenge—against Ukraine and against [Ukrainian President Volodymyr] Zelensky. He slaughters Ukrainians and destroys the infrastructure. Anyone involved in the restoration work will have to clear the rubble and build from scratch.
Exiled Russian oligarch Leonid Nevzlin said in an interview published on Saturday that Russian President Vladimir Putin doesn't want to annex Ukraine, but to"destroy it" instead. Above, Putin is seen on July 20 in Moscow.
