Mikhail Khodorkovsky, once thought to be the wealthiest man in Russia, was arrested and imprisoned by President Vladimir Putin in 2003 and now lives in exile. From London, he advocates against Russian aggression and provides unique insight into how the current Russian leadership thinks and operates.

As Russia’s sham presidential election approaches and Moscow’s illegal occupation of Ukraine drags on, Mr. Khodorkovsky will sit down with former United Kingdom secretary of defence and longtime Putin critic Sir Liam Fox, MP, on what 2024 could bring for the Kremlin, peace and security in Europe, and America’s global interests.
