Episode Details

Exiled Russian billionaire Mikhail Khodorkovsky warns of potential Russian attacks on UK soil, similar to the Salisbury poisonings, unless Britain intensifies its stance against the Kremlin. He believes Putin aims to instill fear and vulnerability in the West, not just target individuals. Khodorkovsky, speaking from London, identifies the UK as Putins main enemy and anticipates increased pressure. He suggests the Trump presidency provided Putin with an opportunity to assert power, possibly by amassing troops near NATO borders like Estonias. Khodorkovsky, who spent ten years in a Siberian prison after challenging Putin, lost his oil empire, and now lives in exile, advocates for Britain to adopt Cold War tactics from the 1950s and 1960s, targeting Russian agents to deter further aggression. He doubts Putins system will survive him and predicts a full rebuild after. Despite the potential for a new Cold War, Khodorkovsky emphasizes the importance of avoiding hot conflict by getting tough now.
