"Existence is fleeting"
Automatically saved draft
Former Kremlin leader Dmitry Medvedev has threatened the political prisoners who have been released from Russia. They are "traitors who pose an existential threat to today's Russia". They should "not forget the transience of their existence in this world" (see video above).
The current deputy head of the Russian Security Council advised them to always look around carefully. As reported , eight political prisoners were also released from Russian prisons and flown out during a major exchange between Russia and the West on Thursday. Among them are Vladimir Kara-Mursa, Ilya Yashin and Oleg Orlov.
The Kremlin received the secret service agent Vadim Krasikov back, who had been convicted of murder in Germany. Krasikov had shot dead a Georgian of Chechen origin in Berlin in 2019. It is assumed that he acted on behalf of the Kremlin. President Vladimir Putin greeted him and several spies released from Western custody on their arrival in Moscow.
Made a better deal
Russia had made the better deal in the exchange, said Medvedev. After all, people had returned "who had worked for the fatherland" and were "patriots of their homeland". Russia, on the other hand, had handed over criminal foreigners who hated and wanted to destroy their homeland.
Work in exile
The threatened Russians were brought to Germany and, according to their own statements, want to continue their work in exile. "I'm not planning to step aside," said Andrei Pivovarov, for example. He had a great desire to return, but he was aware that the Russian authorities would not allow it.
The Kremlin representatives were happy to take my name, because for them my exchange is actually an expulsion.

"The Kremlin representatives were happy to take my name, because for them my exchange is really an expulsion," agrees Ilya Yashin. He wants to continue to campaign against the war in Ukraine and help political prisoners.
In the exchange, the USA got back the reporter Evan Gershkovich and the former soldier Paul Whelan, who were both convicted of alleged espionage. A total of 26 people were released.
