There, in response to your question, I repeat that the court's decision was not personally directed at me. Some in the media say that the decision was politically motivated. But I believe that it was based on the law. Although there was much Russian and international public attention focused on my case, I believe that no group could or should dictate to a court how it should behave. The court is an independent entity and in any country, including Russia, it must operate independently.
Nobody has the right to try to compromise that independence.
The answer to that lies in the Supreme Court's decision of April 17th. My vindication is unconditional. I no longer stand accused. I may freely do as I choose and go where I wish. I am a free man.
