A few weeks ago he took centre stage on a Question Time which for the first half of the programme focused on Berezovsky and Russia.
This morning I saw the Terry Venables look-a-like on HardTalk interviewed by lightweight Stephen Sackur. This interview was later reported on in the BBC Morning News and is to be repeated on BBC News 24 several times today.
In it Berezovsky was asked why it is that if he wants Luguovoi to stand trial over here then he doesn't return to his motherland of Russia and defend his name there. His answer was that he thinks he will be killed.
Why does he think he will be killed? What has he done to the Russian people that makes him think his life is in danger? Berezovsky tried to claim that he made his money by playing the market legally. Today Russia is trying Berezovsky in his absence for embezzlement.
Berezovsky was almost caught out by Sackur when Sackur began questioning Berezovsky on demcocray. Berezovsky had earlier claimed to The Guardian that he was financing revolution in Russia while at the same time wanting a democracy in Russia, which does sound contradictory but is completely logical in the London/Washington school of thought in which democracy is imposed to allow foreign corporations to rape a "new deomcratic" country of its natural resources.
