Mikhail Khodorkovsky

Today, Oct. 25, is the eighth anniversary of Mikhail Khodorkovsky’s arrest – and when his original sentence should have expired.

Demonstrations are being held today in New York’s Times Square and in Washington’s Lafayette Park, across from the White House, and other demonstrations this week are being held across the world, including in Moscow, London and Berlin.
